[00:00:00] An Argument With Myself - Jens Lekman

[00:00:26] Having an argument with myself down Elizabeth Street

[00:00:33] Bumping into backpackers

[00:00:34] And struggling with the parameters

[00:00:35] And the basic construction of my feet

[00:00:40] Kicking beer cans and rubbish along the concrete

[00:00:47] Crossing the street and crossing galaxies

[00:00:49] Of taxis and backseats and drunk suites

[00:00:52] And half-Greeks

[00:00:54] Shut up no you shut up

[00:00:56] What's the matter take a number Buttercup

[00:00:57] Every time I hear you say "F**k it"

[00:00:59] I would remind you of the photo in your pocket

[00:01:01] How long's it been there Two years I bet

[00:01:03] Have a sniff it smells like a cigarette

[00:01:05] When was the last time you smoked a cigarette

[00:01:06] And more importantly who did you smoke it with

[00:01:09] Having an argument with myself down Victoria Street

[00:01:15] Passing the market

[00:01:17] Now the windows neon illuminating my path to defeat

[00:01:23] Your grinning face scaring a poor parakeet

[00:01:30] Your heavy breathing scaring the wind

[00:01:33] So rich on Summer and so sweet

[00:01:38] F**k you no you f**k you

[00:01:39] You didn't come here for nothing did you

[00:01:41] I know that's what you've been saying lately

[00:01:43] But let me draw attention to exhibit B

[00:01:44] Honeysuckle on a little plastic envelope

[00:01:47] And put the flower underneath a microscope

[00:01:48] See what's written on the petals

[00:01:50] Look closer that's her initials

[00:01:51] And now I'm walking by Bev and Mick's

[00:01:58] Backpacker hostel on Victoria Street

[00:02:01] Where it's reggae night tonight

[00:02:03] And the backpackers are pouring out

[00:02:04] Like a tidal wave of vomit

[00:02:06] I have to sit down on the curbside

[00:02:08] And count the coins in my pocket

[00:02:10] See if I have enough cash to take a taxi home

[00:02:13] No alright yes can we just try to figure this out

[00:02:19] Can we just talk about this please

[00:02:21] Nah I don't wanna talk to you

[00:02:23] Okay you wanna keep fighting

[00:02:25] Yeah I wanna keep on fighting

[00:02:26] Alright fair enough

[00:02:28] 1 2 3 here we go

[00:02:29] Having an argument with myself down Queensbury Street

[00:02:37] The lonely light from the town hall clock tower

[00:02:40] The chime of the bells striking

[00:02:41] 1 2 3

[00:02:44] And it took shape in the form of an image

[00:02:46] In the form of a living memory

[00:02:51] The way her shadow used to walk by your side

[00:02:53] In a different time in a different city

[00:02:56] Oh please no you oh please

[00:03:00] I wanna see you drop down on your knees

[00:03:01] Someone will see your hand waving farewell

[00:03:03] Why you're hittin' yourself why you're hittin' yourself

[00:03:05] He's to repeat this half twice at March

[00:03:07] Then it's farce

[00:03:08] But where did I find the source

[00:03:10] To make history of a love a love like ours

[00:03:18] A love like ours
