A psychedelic journey into Chinatown, need a late night snack?

lyrics

I've got Bacon Fried Rice sitting, sizzling on a plate
it comes fast food fresh and served simmered without wait
My knife and fork arranged so perfect on a Chinese Zodiac
while the juices from the chicken wings are dripping through the cracks
of the dollar store dinnerware all painted up in Zen
while grains of rice keep falling on the table now and then.

Outside colors of the night reflect an eerie neon glow
in the lacquered, layered streets where the rain falls misty slow.
Steam hisses in the window over crispy hanging meat
with the sounds of clinking, chewing and the scurrying of feet. The choices on the menu range from planet A to Z
but combo number 50 is the only one for me.

Spices and aromas of the tasty and the wild
fill the air with promises of burning hot to mild
Noodles long and lanky in a broth of liquid jade
stirred, swirling to the surface just to slowly sink and fade
in oily peppered garlic with a hint of roasted fire
it helps to curb the longing for my bacon filled desire.

The conversation turns to rabbit, a rooster and a rat
as the universe unfolds on a crusty paper mat.
Fish inside a crystal box and packed just like sardines
are waiting to acquaint with many steaming Chinese greens.
Give me seconds of that ginger glazed meat behind the bone
with a silver pot of cold tea placed high upon a stone

Dragons in my eyes reflecting off the many signs
that lineup down the street towards where eternity shines.
Smoky perfume fills my senses with opiatic dreams
plus a little wisdom passed along on a tiny paper stream.
Once more I'm on my way back home to join the daily race
and find myself upon on the path that starts and ends at the same place.
