[00:19.42]She wears her Japanese silk slippers
[00:23.30]She's standing in a blizzard of post-it notes
[00:26.37]On an Afghan rug and smiles
[00:29.38]I comb a hand through my hair
[00:31.97]I'm fumbling for a word but it's not there
[00:35.46]There's just a blind spot in my memory
[00:39.38]
[00:48.50]A friend wrote me a letter
[00:50.08]From his cigarette break
[00:51.05]He says he kind of found religion now
[00:55.19]He says he's doing fine
[00:57.87]A motorbike is roaring by outside
[01:00.91]I think it would be nice to take a ride
[01:04.25]Or spend a while in someone else's head
[01:16.58]On the street the psychedelic alcoholic
[01:20.03]From number 14 passes me by
[01:23.10]He grins as if he knew something
[01:25.95]Rent a flat, says a poster,
[01:28.52]Rent a thought, rent a lifestyle
[01:31.41]Today I saw a shopping cart duel
[01:34.07]In the supermarket aisle
[01:36.77]No sweets in the sweet shop,
[01:39.89]No wind in the tree tops
[01:42.50]And there's something in the air
[01:46.55]Early snow in October,
[01:48.69]All the drunkards are sober
[01:52.01]And there's something in the air
[01:57.11]
[02:05.35]All the while I think I gotta leave,
[02:08.10]No-one's nice these days
[02:09.94]And no-one pays their bills and I've been told
[02:12.67]My heart's in perfect shape
[02:14.69]Salesmen mumble bible quotings
[02:17.54]On the radio like tinnitus
[02:19.67]Irony is over, take the trash out
[02:22.86]Who said that?
[02:24.05]No sweets in the sweet shop,
[02:27.79]No wind in the tree tops
[02:30.27]And there's something in the air
[02:34.34]Early snow in October,
[02:36.68]All the drunkards are sober
[02:40.27]And there's something in the air
[02:43.78]
[03:12.65]She wears her Japanese silk slippers
[03:15.67]She's standing in a blizzard of post-it notes
[03:18.88]On an Afghan rug and smiles
[03:22.04]The world has turned into a blur
[03:24.90]With only random scenes in focus
[03:27.82]Cut-out images I cannot possibly explain
[03:34.35]
[03:41.46]No sweets in the sweet shop,
[03:44.47]No wind in the tree tops
[03:46.88]And there's something in the air
[03:51.27]Early snow in October,
[03:53.55]All the drunkards are sober
[03:56.96]And there's something in the air
[04:00.82]No sweets in the sweet shop,
[04:03.56]No wind in the tree tops
[04:06.04]And there's something in the air
[04:10.64]Early snow in October,
[04:12.77]All the drunkards are sober
[04:16.07]And there's something in the air
[04:19.78]
