"Chinese Rifle Song" lyrics - THE MOUNTAIN GOATS

I lay out on the patio, dreaming
I lay out on the patio, dreaming
And the Chinese rifle sounded in the evening air
I heard them popping off everywhere

I lay out on the patio on the chaise lounge
I lay out on the patio and I let my hand rest against the hot redwood frame
And the chinese rifles sounded again
I could not stomach their acumen
