Jeep Rosenberg: Music

La Ultima Lagrima

Words & music by Jeep Rosenberg
Dedicated to Tom Russell and Rod Serling. Zona crepuscular. The last teardrop, the last drip of rotgut. A setting not so different from the Greyhound Bus station in Binghamton, NY, where Serling, cursed with having grown up there, actually filmed the famous Twilight Zone episode of the bus station to which no one arrives and from which no one departs...ever.
Down the boulevard of busted hopes, you'll spy a neon sign: /An upside-down martini glass, with a drop about to fall. / You'll puzzle out the letters, on that old adobe wall--it's La Ultima Lagrima, out on Cemetary Line...
