(capo on third fret) Intro: What is it that makes me just a little bit queasy There’s a breeze that makes my breathing not so easy I’ve had my lungs checked out with X-rays I’ve smelled the hospital hallways ( Sorry. Not really sure if this is what you call this chord. Basically play a but play the note on the second string not the note.) SHORT Chorus: Someday I’ll have a disappearing hairline Someday I’ll wear pajamas in the daytime Times when the day seems like a play by Sartre When it seems a book burnings in perfect order I gave the doctor my description I’ve tried to stick to my prescription LONG Chorus: Someday I’ll have a disappearing hairline Someday I’ll wear pajamas in the daytime Oh oh oh oh (or something to that effect) Afternoons will be measured out Measured out and measured with Coffeespoons and T.S. Eliot (The remaining verse and Chorus repeat the same chord progression) Maybe if I could do a play-by-playback I could change the test results that I would get back I’ve watched a summer evening pass by I’ve heard the rattle in my bronchi REPEAT LONG Chorus

À propos de la chanson

Cette chanson évoque des ressentis d'inconfort et d'angoisse face à des interrogations sur la vie et le passage du temps. L'artiste parle d'une appréhension presque physique, tout en abordant des pensées universelles sur le vieillissement et la banalité des journées qui s'écoulent. On y trouve une réflexion sur la routine quotidienne, à travers des images troublantes et poétiques, où des moments apparemment insignifiants sont mis en lumière avec un soupçon de mélancolie. Le contexte semble être celui d'une introspection, où l'auteur se questionne sur son existence et la façon dont le temps façonne notre réalité. Des éléments comme des visites chez le médecin ou des souvenirs de soirées d'été ajoutent une dimension personnelle à ce parcours, rendant le propos plus accessible et touchant.
