[00:03.890] I ran down the road, pants down to my knees
[00:09.230] Screaming "please come help me,
[00:11.600] that Canadian shaman gave a little too much to me!"
[00:14.610] And I'm writing a novel because it's never been done before
[00:26.980] First house that I saw I wrote house up on the door
[00:32.460] And told the people who lived there
[00:35.500] they had to get out "cause my reality is realer than yours"
[00:36.820] And there's no time for the present
[00:42.430] And there's a black dog on the bed
[00:50.150] I went to the backyard to burn my only clothes
[00:55.550] And the dog ran out
[00:57.460] and said "you can't turn nothing into nothing is with me no more"
[01:01.500] Well I'm no doctor but that monkey might be right
[01:18.410] And if he is I'll be walking him my whole life
[01:28.0] I rode to Malibu on a dune buggy with Neil
[01:33.289] He said "you're gonna have to drive me down on the beach
[01:36.530] if you ever want to write the real"
[01:38.600] And I said "I'm sorry, young man what is your name again?"
[01:50.870] Now everywhere I go in West Hollywood
[01:57.400] It's filled with people pretending they don't see the actress
[02:00.610] and the actress wishing that they could
[02:02.370] We could do ayahuasca
[02:06.810] Baby if I wasn't holding all these drinks
[02:14.530] Something 'bout the way Violet whips her hair
[02:19.940] That makes me empty my pockets
[02:21.530] on the corner to corner bumming twenties
[02:23.950] as if I was the mayor
[02:25.610] I don't need any new friends, Momma
[02:30.200] But I could really use something to do
[02:36.850] So if you're up for it sometimes
[02:41.680] I swear you wouldn't have to be my muse
[02:55.820] Heidegger and Sartre, drinking poppy tea
[03:00.930] I could've sworn last night I passed out in my van
[03:03.330] and now these guys are pouring one for me
[03:06.540] I'll never leave the canyon 'cause I'm surrounded on all sides
[03:17.380] By people writing novels and living on amusement rides
