about

Words Like Repression

An outtake from the Golden Boy sessions produced to album quality by Richard Stolz at Woodstock Studios

lyrics

We went out walking
Where the tall weeds grow
She said "Whats on your mind?
I said "I don't know"
She said "For fuck's sake,
Get a grip or get out on your own!
Maybe you can grow up
Before you grow old"

I can count to one hundred in Spanish
And French and Japanese too
I can spell words like repression
Pneumonia and Kathmandu
She said "that shit don't mean nothing
And nothing is all that you'll know
If you don't grow up
Before you grow old

Whispered words feed my paranoia
But somehow still, I adore ya
I'm a fool, so confused
By the hell that I put myself through
With all that I've done, whatever I'm doing and everything I'm yet to do

So as I lay dreaming
In my filthy sheets
She lies soft against
The jagged edge of me
There's an ache in my gut
And an itching in my soul
As I wonder whether I will ever grow up
Before I grow old

We went out walking
Where the tall weeds grow
She said"Whats on your mind?"
I said "I don't know"
