Like Today

歌词

In tomorrow

I see no promiseand yesterday was like today

Woke up, got up, near eleven o'clockbutt naked except

I was wearing my socksand that's cool, 'cause most the time this floor is coldstand up and stretch look around this messmy place has been a cage since she left memake my way to the kitchen, start the coffeethen dip to the bathroom, begin the triple-sand wash the previous evening off menow out the shower, get dry, shove a q-tip in my earwell, what do we have here?it appears as if a piece of me has got motivationain't nothin' wrong with a little morning masturbationfresh, dressed like fifty centsclean and awake now

I'm ready to commencespark up the caffeine and nicotine bingeand that's pretty much the pattern of how the day beginsand

I write for an hour, maybe half hour morethen put on my shoes and grab my key for the doorput my headphones on for this world

I ignoretrek down the street towards the record store"hey, bro - how you doing, anything new today?""nah man, how you been? it's the same old same again"well, then

I'll be gone, friend,

I'll see you aroundthen

I'm out, destination uptownin the summertime the women wear a lot of skinand if

I sit in one spot

I can take 'em all insometimes

I even talk, to see if

I can make one grinif not, yo, it's cool

I ain't gonna take it personallyfrom

Anne Landers, to

Ani DiFranco to

Orphan Annie

I love all women, but most of them just can't stand me

I don't know, maybe it's my hair or my clothes"...or maybe she noticed that you was diggin in you're nose..."either way it's okay,

I wasn't tryin' to get laid

I just wanted to say "I hope you have a great day"and then she stopped with a smile that began to blush"here, take my number, call me up, I'll come over and make you lunch"

I got up and headed down towards the book storeto check the titles, that my man

Michael's got me lookin' formy visit was short, 'cause

I just couldn't feelthat cat behind the counter actin' like

I'm here to stealso

I dipped back out into a cloud of tattoospierced body parts and colorful hairdosand

I questioned, did

Babylon resemble this?are we getting any closer to the end of the list?a sensuous kiss, placed on apoco-lipswe teach them how to make a fist, but not to resistand

I'm wondering how'd we find this positionbut people are people and

I still love 'em, especially the womenonwards to the coffee shop, maybe

Muddies for a refill and somesociological studiessee the junkies, while they co-exist with the sobersall the bugging of eyeballs, the shrugging of shouldersand that's when

I saw her, sippin' on water

I wanna kiss her mom just for having this daughterexcuse me miss,

I don't mean to come across strongbut

I've been waitin' a while and you've been taking too longand she smiled and

I began to blushshe asked if

I'd like to go to the bathroom and make some loveand

I got visions of us, and the mirror getting steamedand that's the very moment

I woke up from the dream

Woke up, got up, near eleven o'clockbutt naked except

I was wearing my socksand that's cool, 'cause most the time this floor is coldstand up and stretch and look for my soul

In tomorrow

I see no promiseand yesterday was like today
