paroles de chanson Our Anniversary (feat. Dead Rider) - Bill Callahan

When I was just a little boy
I asked my mother what would I be
Would I be happy?

It's our anniversary
I leave it ajar and go outside
To look at the driveway stars

The crickets are chirping
And they stop at my step
I stop my step
And they start up again

It's our anniversary
And the bullfrogs and everything that can sing
Is singing its mating song

The soil is steaming, the grass is swooning
Guns or fireworks are popping down in the town
A woman is running
And a man jumps up and down

This is our anniversary
And you've hidden my keys
This is one anniversary you're spending with me

I slide in the front seat, the driver's side
The hotwire and hightail crosses my mind
But still in the driveway, fixed like the stars
I flip on the headlights and go back inside

The climate's controlled
While the battery dies
Clipping the wings of your morning flight

This day will end in some form of excess
Pants around ankles, too weak to fully undress

It's our anniversary
A celebration of
And here's to next year
Maybe you'll join me in my car
We'll drive together
But not too far

We are far from flowers
Cut and dried
So let us thrive, thrive, thrive
Just like the weeds, we curse sometimes
