Dr. Bucks' Letter

(앨범: The Unutterable - 2000)

I lost my temper with a friend
Mocked him and treated him with rudeness
And though I try to make amends
Still I miss him, I walk a dark corridor

Woke up one morn'
Dr. Buck's letter
Of my own making, I walk a dark corridor of my heart

Hoping one day a door will be ajar
At least so we can recompense
Ah, betrayal of our hard-worn friendship
In vulgar and arrogant obedience
So what was untrue beneath a parlance
I open the envelope

Dr. Buck's letter
Rare welfare benefit reports

Jay McCarthy, approximately ten to fifteen days
I got down, I was depressed
It was Dr. Buck's letter
Turn the radio on

Dr. Buck's letter
Cheer myself up
Put the radio on, get the magazine out
And read about the essence of tong

Checklist, I never leave home without
One, sunglasses, I wear them all year around
I seem to need them more often, it's a habit
Music, cassettes, CD's
Three, palm pilot
It's my lifeline, I think it's my PA's compurter
She rules my diary and I download it
Four, mobile phone
Five, AMEX card
They made such a fuss about giving it to me
But I spent four times getting it turned down
I was in the realm of the essence of tong
