|
| From one of his SNL skits
|
| Some people wake up to a tweet tweet tweet tweet tweet twitter mess
|
| Some old people wake up to a lot of emails sent to their Gmail address

|
| Well, a few of those texts might be sexts
|
| Some things I say are very serious
|
| And some things I say are totally in jest
|

|
| If you don’t know the answer to that
|
| Then you flunked the «I know everything about Mark Kozelek» test

|
| Woke up in my bed today
|
| Was not much to do
|
| The sun shining brightly through
|
| The cracks between the window and curtain sills
|
| I woke up today
|
| June, June, June, June
|
| I needed a plan so I went to the store and bought a gift for you
|
| Then I walked down through the streets in Chinatown
|
| Looked at the colorful fruits and vegetables
|
| For a moment my heart was filled with happiness
|
| Forgot about my bellyaches
|
| And the inevitable gloomy thoughts that can grip me for days
|
| When I got nothing to do
|
| Disappear for just one minute
|
| June, June, June, June
|
| Then I got to your house
|
| The cat was sleeping at the top of your bed by the window
|
| She was looking at me with a serious face
|
| I was out of breath so I laid my head down on the pillow
|
| The top of my head against her softness
|
| The room was filled with California sun
|
| Your cat went back to sleep easily
|
| This is a second of life I hope to come back
|
| As one to five minutes I meditated on
|
| What it could possibly mean to be a cat
|
| They live for the day and they are easily loved
|
| And they easily give love back
|
| My guess is they don’t know that
|
| The end of their lives will inevitably come
|
| They live to drink water, eat food, be loved
|
| And sleep endlessly in the sun
|
| I forced myself up and walked back up the hill
|
| Got an iced tea at Trieste and got to 's
|
| Where I was tempted by the usual
|
| But my willpower won so I got a quarter pound prosciutto
|
| Jumped into a taxi cab, stopped for some celery sticks
|
| And picked up my laundry
|
| Now I wake up and the sun is muted softly by the shades
|
| Through the shades, the sky looks baby skin pink
|
| Now she’s picking me up and we’re going out to the mountain house
|
| Now she’s picking me up and we’re going out to the mountain house
|
| And we’re going out to the mountain house
|
| Now she’s picking me up and we’re going out to the mountain house |
