Speedboat |
Julie said we drink far too much coffee |
Wine and cigarettes and we never get no sleep |
I first met them at a riverboat party |
Both of them were speeding I would say |
I lived on the edge of all this indulgence |
Taking notes and trusting in prudence |
Julie said to jim why don’t we jump in |
While the water is cool and we are still friends |
Some say that they O. D. 'd on leonard cohen |
Well I can see that river whenever I think about them |
The river is cruel and the water is deep and blue |
I was working then on my great unfinished novel |
«please let introduce myself my name is ronald» |
I was okay there until I lost my cool |
Now let me introduce you to the rest of the crew |
It wasn’t my style to find surf in my eye |
It was much more my style to find sand in my eyes |
Though there is absolutely no truth to be discovered |
Albeit truth then is nothing to be found |
We academics are not easily discouraged |
Lloyd you know wits they come three to the pound |
Julie said to jim look at the state we’re in |
It was never her intention to conclude anything |
It wasn’t my style to find surf in my eye |
It was much more my style to find sand in my eyes |
It was just not my style to find surf in my eye |
It was much more my style to get sand kicked in my eyes |
Sand in my eyes |
