Boxcar In The Desert

notes:
Remember that X files episode where they were led by a
series of cookoo clues to a boxcar full of aliens (with
smallpox vaccine scars) buried in the desert? I thought that
would make a funny romantic symbol: cold, hidden, possibly
full of alien corpses (maybe empty would be better). But in
this story, the romantic interest gets what she wants: a
reason to go to the desert.
We made a promise
of treasure and spice
something was empty
but everything was nice
My love is a boxcar buried in the desert
Look and you might find out if it's empty or full
I gave my love to keep and carry
I did not say how deep it's buried
(it's deep)
My love is a boxcar buried in the desert
Look and you might find out if it's empty or full
Turns out it didn't matter
She found what she wanted:
A story and a reason to go
to the desert
My love is a boxcar buried in the desert
Look and you might find out if it's empty or full
Tagses: boxcar, desert, lie, empty, x files (we can link these up later)
