Picture Jane, perennial sketchbook carrier. Jane has just graduated high school and is looking forward to a boring summer before college--so she decides to take a job as an au pair for a wealthy family in the Hamptons.
lyrics
Long Island sinks inexorably
Into the ocean. Long Island and me
Bored of being car-less and eighteen
Drawing power lines, suburban scenes
At least
Grant me
Some new
Scenery
Out on the marshes, out on the bay
All is uncertain as a house on stilts
Picture me refined, a young au pair
I want to paint the sand dunes in plein air
At least
Grant me
Some new
Scenery
If the tides will allow
If the tides will allow
I’ll mark this down
