the holy gasp - in amsterdam lyrics
[verse i]
hey bob, last night i had a dream
if dan lived, he’d ask, “what was it?”
or maybe he’d say nothing
regardless, here’s my dream
it was of my only father
cross_legged, meditating
in a red_light district window
and um
[pre_chorus]
well, in my dream i am in amsterdam
my wife nor i know who i am
[verse ii]
i turn to her
i tell her: “i won’t be home for shabbos
it’s not that i don’t love you
it’s just that i hate shabbos
with all its peace and quiet
and all its gentle prayer
i was not raised with quiet,”
and then
[pre_chorus]
she screams, “i know! godd_mn! this is amsterdam!”
i scream, “don’t scream! i’m still a man!”
[chorus]
“no, you are a coward,” shе says
and i know i am
i’m worse than my father. at least
hе was good enough in the end
[verse iii]
it’s been two years since she left me
and three since dan last died
the truth is i miss shabbos
i miss what i should’ve tried
while i had an ex_wife’s father
while i had broken bread
now who will be my father?
oh, bob
[pre_chorus]
in my heart i am still in amsterdam
my dad is dead and so is dan
[chorus]
and i am a liar—it’s true
and i know i am
i’m worse than my father. at least
he was good enough in the end
[interlude]
aah aah aah
aah aah aah
aah aah aah
aah aah aah aah aah
[outro]
he was good enough in the end
