[00:01.20]
[00:18.72]The cash machine is blue and green
[00:23.67]
[00:25.67]For a hundred in twenties
[00:27.58]
[00:28.37]And a small service fee
[00:30.55]
[00:31.87]I could spend three dollars
[00:33.69]
[00:35.72]And sixty-three cents
[00:37.17]
[00:39.30]On diet coca-cola
[00:40.91]
[00:43.05]And unlit cigarettes
[00:44.73]
[01:00.37]I wonder why we listen to poets
[01:02.92]
[01:03.60]When nobody gives a ****
[01:05.45]
[01:07.68]How hot and sorrowful
[01:09.60]
[01:11.30]This machine begs for luck
[01:13.32]
[01:16.28]All my lies are always wishes
[01:20.47]
[01:22.97]I know I would die
[01:26.02]If I could come back new
[01:28.98]
[01:44.56]I want a good life
[01:45.82]
[01:47.22]With a nose for things
[01:48.85]
[01:51.17]The fresh wind and bright sky
[01:53.01]
[01:54.30]To enjoy my suffering
[01:56.33]
[01:58.31]A hole without a key
[01:59.68]
[02:00.66]If I break my tongue
[02:02.28]
[02:05.27]Speaking of tomorrow
[02:06.93]
[02:08.56]How will it ever come
[02:09.96]
[02:13.36]All my lies are always wishes
[02:17.73]
[02:19.95]I know I would die
[02:22.65]If I could come back new
[02:25.99]
[02:40.91]I'm down on my hands and knees
[02:43.34]
[02:44.13]Every time a doorbell rings
[02:46.06]
[02:48.25]I shake like a toothache
[02:50.45]
[02:51.68]When I hear myself sing
[02:53.68]
[02:56.72]All my lies are only wishes
[03:01.49]
[03:03.47]I know I would die
[03:06.58]If I could come back new
[03:09.50]
[03:25.13]I would like to salute
[03:26.57]
[03:28.93]The ashes of American flags
[03:31.02]
[03:32.66]And all the fallen leaves
[03:34.25]
[03:36.42]Filling up shopping bags
