lirik lagu mark kozelek with ben boye and jim white – blood test

after eating garlic naan and tandoori chicken breast
some women want marriage and a white wedding dress

from one of his snl skits

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
