Lyrics I'm Writing a Novel - Father John Misty
I
ran
down
the
road,
pants
down
to
my
knees
Screaming
"please
come
help
me,
that
Canadian
shaman
gave
a
little
too
much
to
me!"
And
I′m
writing
a
novel
Because
it's
never
been
done
before
First
house
that
I
saw
I
wrote
house
up
on
the
door
And
told
the
people
who
lived
there
they
had
to
get
out
"Cause
my
reality
is
realer
than
yours"
And
there′s
no
time
for
the
present
And
there's
a
black
dog
on
the
bed
I
went
to
the
backyard
to
burn
my
only
clothes
And
the
dog
ran
out
and
said
"you
can't
turn
nothing
into
nothing
is
with
me
no
more"
Well
I′m
no
doctor
but
that
monkey
might
be
right
And
if
he
is
I′ll
be
walking
him
my
whole
life
I
rode
to
Malibu
on
a
dune
buggy
with
Neil
He
said
"you're
gonna
have
to
drive
me
down
on
the
beach
if
you
ever
want
to
write
the
real"
And
I
said
"I′m
sorry,
young
man
what
is
your
name
again?"
Now
everywhere
I
go
in
West
Hollywood
It's
filled
with
people
pretending
they
don′t
see
the
actress
and
the
actress
wishing
that
they
could
We
could
do
ayahuasca
Baby
if
I
wasn't
holding
all
these
drinks
Something
′bout
the
way
Violet
whips
her
hair
That
makes
me
empty
my
pockets
on
the
corner
to
corner
bumming
twenties
as
if
I
was
the
mayor
I
don't
need
any
new
friends,
Momma
But
I
could
really
use
something
to
do
So
if
you're
up
for
it
sometimes
I
swear
you
wouldn′t
have
to
be
my
muse
Heidegger
and
Sartre,
drinking
poppy
tea
I
could′ve
sworn
last
night
I
passed
out
in
my
van
and
now
these
guys
are
pouring
one
for
me
I'll
never
leave
the
canyon
′cause
I'm
surrounded
on
all
sides
By
people
writing
novels
and
living
on
amusement
rides
