Mansard Roof

I see a Mansard Roof through the trees

I see a salty message written in the eves

The ground beneath my feet

We are garbage and concrete

And now the tops of buildings

I can see them, too

I see a Mansard Roof through the trees

I see a salty message written in the eves

The ground beneath my feet

We are garbage and concrete

And now the tops of buildings

I can see them, too

The Argentines collapse in defeat

The admiralty surveys the remnants of the fleet

The ground beneath their feet

Is a nautically map sheet

As thin as paper

While it slips away from you
