Well I’ve been lockin' myself up in my house for sometime now   Readin' and writin' and readin' and thinkin'    and searching for reasons and missing the seasons.   The Autumn, the Spring, the Summer, the snow.    The record will stop and the record will go.    Latches latched the windows down,    the dog coming in and the dog going out.    Up with caffeine and down with a shot.    Constantly worried about what I’ve got.    Distracting my work but I can’t make a stop    and my confidence on and my confidence off.    And I sink to the bottom and rise to the top    and I think to myself that I do this a lot.    World outside just goes it goes it goes it goes it goes it goes...   and witness it all from the blinds of my window.   THREE, FOUR      I'm a little nervous 'bout what you'll think   When you see me in my swimming trunks   And last night in New York I got raging drunk   Remember one time I got raging drunk with you       Now, I can recall a time when we made the city   Streets our playground, kissing in the fountains   Filled with cigarettes and bottles   Sped through Italian city streets of cobblestone      Because we had to   Because I loved you   Because the damned alcohol   Beacuse what ever at all      Now I've grown to aware of my mortality   To let go and forget about dying   Long enough to drop the hammer down   And let the indolence go wild and flying through      Because we had to
