jeffrey lewis – avenue a, shanghai, hollywood كلمات اغاني

once upon a time there was a princess man
he had the special powers of the checkout scan
he could price out any product from the upcs
but he couldn’t see the forest for the symmetries

a perfect paranoia now engulfs my pets
that i’m using them as simple social safety nets
i wish this loneliness upon myself, i’m told
cause both puppy chow and vengeance aren’t just served cold

meeting with the neighbor traps you in a chat
the dog is kind of bored until she lays down flat
i just walk out and wander like a floating bag
and a city dog can always get a hearty wag

so face it, you can’t win, who has to try this hard?
i guess the ace that’s in my sleeve is just a pity card
but i know i rode a camel from this camera shot
and i must’ve had some s-xy times that i forgot

i wait to fall in love, i wait to see brazil
i wait to see if plants survive my windowsill
i wait to see the northern lights i always missed
like chicken breast, it’s piled in my bucket list

but with laughter and with pain that’s a broken heart
when happy ever after is the way it starts
but if there’s potholes in the rock and roll i tell
at least it’s still a pothole on the road to h-ll

avenue a was once enthused i guess
in retrospect compared to all this plywood mess
like a dog sits in depression touching chin to floor
no one with a job has got the dough no more

now he’s packing heat and gigging in shanghai
and no one knows he’s secretly a famous guy
an everlasting fire burns among the cancer smoke
like a journalist still asking “what is antifolk?”

anyone can catalogue the reasons here
any rationale can be a thing i think
any word of welcome can be sweet and clear
with a hidden scammy virus in the hyperlink

but tell us little stories till we feel more good
tell us little stories just like hollywood
tell us little stories so the hours p-ss
as we row to reach the island of the middle cl-ss
