Cigarettes and carrot juice And get yourself a new tattoo For those sleeveless days of June I'm sitting on the Caf?Xeno's steps With a book I haven't started yet Watching all the girls walk by... Could I take you out? I'll be yours without a doubt On that Big Dipper And if the sound of this it frightens you We could play it real cool And act somewhat indifferent And hey June why'd you have to come Why'd you have to come around, so soon? I wasn't ready for all this nature The terrible green green grass And violent blooms of flowered dresses And afternoons that make me sleepy But we could wait awhile Before we push that dull turnstile Into the passage The thousands they have tread And others sometimes fled Before the turn came And we could wait our lives Before a chance arrives Before the passage From the top you can see Monterey Or think about San Jose Though I know it's not that pleasant And hey Jim, Kerouac Or so he likes to say. Lucky bastard He's sitting on the cafe Xeno's steps With a girl I'm not over yet Watching all the world go by "Boy you're looking bad Did I make you feel that sad? I'm honestly flattered." But if she asks me out, I'll be hers without a doubt On that Big Dipper Cigarettes, and carrot juice And get yourself a new tattoo For those sleeveless days of June... I'm sitting on the Caf?Xeno's steps... I haven't got the courage yet I haven't got the courage yet I haven't got the courage yet |

This is the Golden Age
It's hard to imagine With the way I feel today That this is the Golden Age The Golden Age Somewhere I failed Somewhere I lost you In a black crowd of crows And shiny things I can't remember This is the Golden Age This is the Golden Age The Golden Age It seems like I'm high But baby I'm crawling In the unbearable days I threw away But I should have savored The flaxen light Off of the dying wheat Your rye whiskey mouth And your dandelion teeth This is the Golden Age This is the Golden Age This is the Golden Age This is the Golden Age |

We went down to the old part of town by the stinking canal and the cotton mill Under a ghetto palm with her bicycle shorts on with a gesture she said to me: "I really must confess I'd like to get undressed with you." And though the thought had never really crossed my mind Oh that was a line So I went along. We ran out Under the turning leaves The fetid earth it was damp and cool Well Autumn's feeble light on her salty neck all innocence, it was lost I really must confess I am feeling quite distressed My stars are always crossed And I have always taken more than I have given back, and as a matter of fact, I've given nothing up |

Cold summer wheat It sways in the breeze till it fades in the autumn to brown Cool summer grass it beckons and calls and I lie here with you in my heart I can't forget you I can't forget you I can't forget you at all Birds take to the sky they never alight they circle around forever Now I tried but I failed to hide and disguise this one simple sentiment I can't forget you I can't forget you I can't forget you No No I can't forget you I can't forget you I can't forget you at all No No |

You can still come and bring me coffee in the morning. You can still come and make me chicken fried steak. Or you can live your life with whomever you please to As long as someone takes good care of me. You know I don't mind. How can I live without you if it means I gotta get a job? You could still come and bring me those fancy pastries. You can still come and crawl into my bed. Or you can live your life with whomever you please to, As long as someone takes good care of me. You know I don't mind. How can I live without you if it means I gotta get a job |

And it's a long long way to the top But when you come down It's one headlong rush You've got an itch to scratch The shiny bits of light Hanging like stars Hanging like stars And Mary says you're such a restless soul My bicycle spaniard My magyar of cold You've got an itch to find what's best left lost and cold My bicycle spaniard My poor restless soul My bicycle spaniard My poor restless soul |
