Sweet and Sour

It must be a misunderstanding
You're smarter than you think, but I remember when
I live in a miracle morning and I live at the end of days
It must be nice to have a little money
Love is sweet and sour, yeah, I'll love you sweet or sour, yeah
I went down to ogies and got myself a beer
I went outside lit a cigarette and started drinkin' it
Just about as I was enjoying myself some young men and young women walked out with short skirts and long ties, and this one guy he had an Apple watch on he dropped it on the ground, cracked the screen, and man he just threw that shit in the garbage.
I remember when people like you, man, yeah people like you they didn't come here.

Desmond

I was Norma Desmond sulking in the dark
Reliving every role, replaying every part
For 24 days an hour 365 a week
Don't call it a comeback
I'm in love with the notion of you
I was Gloria Swanson in Sunset Boulevard
I was Uma Thurman waiting for the shot
Life's a TV movie that replays in your dreams
I never knew the old Vienna
I'm in love with the notion of you
I'm in love I don't know what you do
All you people in the dark

You're on think ice, karma's gonna catch up with you
Measure once cut twice you're gonna wish it was as stupid as that
when your nightmares feel like dreams
I hope it never happens to you
When you've fucked up everything you did
and the rumours that you've spread
are tied together by bare thread
someday it's gonna catch up to you
You're on think Ice karma's gonna catch up with you
it was your own device but somehow someone still loves you
when your nightmares feel like dreams
I hope it never happens to you
But when you live the life of a theif
someday it'll happen
you're on thin ice

Lonely

All my life I been sad and blue
I just sit in my room and think about
over and over and over and over and over and over
I'm so alone I'm so alone
I look at your cat and I feel so sad
I look at your keyboard and I feel so bad
Looking at your postcard hanging on the wall
I'm living in a photo and I feel so sad
You live in the city in a little tiny pad
when you live in the city you can feel real bad
but I wanna know I wanna know
What virtues, Lord, you make us abhor
Now I look at other people but I think about you
I'm so alone
I look at other people but I think about you
and I wanna know what you're doing right now
I wanna know I wanna know
What virtues, Lord, you make us abhor
and oh, I know I've been wrong, but you were always in style

Art Center

We used to sit on the wall outside the art center and flip through books
Spacin' and I wonder what's real, if I can miss you at all
Paint on your jeans you made a mess of your hair
Remember you used to dream, remember you used to say
Someday soon
Sometimes it gets under my skin
I'll never understand how I couldn't know all about you
Remember you used to dream, remember you used to say
Someday soon
a plus tard

Deep Space
05:22
|
|||
|
I don't know know where I am going
Deep space sky without an ocean
It's been years years since I got going
Deep space alone with my ocean
It didn't speak to me but it appeared to me
and what it said was what I feared it to be

Wish List
03:33
|
|||
|
I wish I'd listened to you just one time in all those years
I wish I could compromise or comprehend what you do
I wish I could be like you just like you
it's never gonna happen
I wish I could sell myself
I wish I could really write just like you
you're a real poet, man
I wish I was like Lenard Michaels not like myself
I wish I could be like you just like you
it's never gonna happen
