Chinese Surprize
Louie Pérez, David Hidalgo
Two skinny dogs yelling at the sky
By a big red tree Compton neon night
Scratched on the wall, nearly ten foot tall
In a Chinese surprise in my soup
A boy and a girl hugging on a step
Palm trees sway to the right and to the left
Scratched in a tree, “always - you and me”
Like a Chinese surprise in my soup
A little bitty hen crawling in the dirt
The big old dog tugging at my shirt
“Let’s walk along the road, where the wild wishes go”
In a Chinese surprise in my soup
