Periodically Double Or Triple

(album: Popular Songs - 2009)

Never read Proust
Seems a little too long
Never used the hammer
Without somehow using it wrong
I've got time on my hands
That I can't wash off
I'm guzzling vitamin C but
I can't shake this cough

Walls are closing in
They often do
I'm seeing double and triple
Does this ever happen to you?
I don't have to make it rain
But I never argue with improving the view

Never wear a helmet
When I'm riding a bike
Never recall a face
To me, they all look alike
I've got a hole in my brain
Where what I meant to say lives
I'm living in the past
The gift that gives and gives

Walls are closing in
They often do
I'm seeing double and triple
Does this ever happen to you?
I don't have to make it rain
But I never argue with improving the view

Sometimes
In the future tense
I hope that you are safer
Put up an electric fence
Then and only then
We can all get along
Get it down in writing
Judge Judy tell me if I'm wrong
Walls are closing in
They often do
I'm seeing double and triple
Does this ever happened to you?
I don't have to make it rain
But I never argue with improving the view
