Song lyrics by Neko Case

My first post and it's completely random.

The lyrics to this song just reminded me of so many discussions on FDR.

That's all.

 

 

"Nearly Midnight, Honolulu"

Hey, little kid that I saw at the bus stop one day
It was nearly midnight in Honolulu (Lulu)
We were waiting for the shuttle to take us to the aeroplane
When your mother said, your mother said
Like I couldn't hear her, she said,
"Get the fuck away from me!
Why don't you ever shut up?
Get the fuck away from me!"
Oh, oh

Well, I just want to say that it happened
'Cause one day when you ask yourself,
"Did it really happen?"
You won't believe it, but yes, it did
And I'm sorry
And I'm sorry
'Cause it happens everyday

They won't believe you
When you tell them
They won't believe you
When you say, "My mother, she did not love me.
My mother, she did not love me"

No (no)

No (no)

No (no)

No (no)

No (no)

No (no)

No (no)

No (no)

Some days you feel like a cartoon
And people will rush to make excuses for you
You'll hear yourself complain
But don't you ever shut up please
Kid, have your say
'Cause I still love you
Even if I don't see you again

I'm walkin' through streets that are deadWalkin', walkin' with you in my headMy feet are so tiredMy brain is so wiredAnd the clouds are weepin'Did I hear someone tell a lie?Did I hear someone's distant cry?I spoke like a childYou destroyed me with a smileWhile I was sleepin'I'm sick of loveThat I'm in the thick of itThis kind of loveI'm so sick of itI see, I see lovers in the meadowI see, I see silhouettes in the windowI watch them 'til they're goneAnd they leave me hangin' onTo a shadowI'm sick of loveI hear the clock tickThis kind of loveI'm lovesickSometimes, the silence can be like thunderSometimes, I wanna take to the road and plunderCould you ever be true?I think of youAnd I wonderI'm sick of loveI wish I'd never met youI'm sick of loveI'm tryin' to forget youJust don't know what to doI'd give anything to be with you

Sometimes I listen to Dylan tunes, and especially to the lyrics.   Here's one that seems to nail a rocky relationship well.   Love Sick;
