Book of Matches : Track 6 from Indoorfins II

lyrics

I've never taken any money for this, she said.
Well, what could I say?
And though I never thought of paying for it
I thought I'd thank her anyway
She had a slight resemblance to Robert Smith from 1982

I counted off the empty bottles in front of her
Say, how do you feel?
Ba da da da da da da, feelin' groovy
It never seems like logic counts
When alcohol's around in these amounts
This place is closing in a couple of minutes so
So where do we go?
A couple blocks and a left at the clinic
Up three flights, the door by the green pay phone

Somewhere in my mind
There's a place and time
When it would be you here

Turn the key and open up the door
The morning waffles congealing in syrup
Beneath a peace sign painted on a tie die sheet
The song remains the same I saw
A Zeppelin blacklight poster on the wall
She grabbed my collar and proceeded to drag me the couch
And announced she'd be 17 in July

Chorus

In the bathroom, forehead to tiles
I'm trying to cool my brain
Dirty laundry on the floor in a pile
And this room sways like a weather vane
Could this be the down and out that Gordon Sumner told me all about?
Good night conscience
Goodbye consciousness

She left me hanging to dry
Just like on a clothesline
And when I looked around I didn't know this place
And all I found was a book of matches
