Текст песни Days of the Years - The Felice Brothers

Leaving my coat at the Greyhound station
Raising my arms in supplication
Making some money, spending some money
Drinking Pepsi, just walking around
Making people hate me, making people laugh
Fear of drowning in a shallow bath
Feeling under-dressed in the cold midwest
Kissing my grandmother goodbye

Watching the crocuses bloom and fade
Easter bunny from an old parade
Exchanging pleasantries under pleasant trees
Over griefs and apéritifs

These are the days of the years of my life

American summer and it's all a breeze
Buck-tooth girls in skin-tight jeans
I'm crooning in the open West

Meeting my baby at a greasy spoon
Sitting alone in the Rembrandt room
Walking in the shade where lilies weep
Under clouds of marzipan

Walking in the dark of monument valley
Stray cats in a narrow alley The song was weird but still they cheered it's scrambled eggs and it's solitaire weill these are the days of the years of my life

Mopping up gore from the butcher's floor
Feeling clean as a new drug store
Singing loud idiotic songs
In the blue blue mountains walking along

Night-long drives on the wild edges
Apparitions in the neighbor's hedges
Sinus drips and Battleship
Putting ashes in a rushing stream

Watching a city turn into sea
Standing in water up to the knee
Missing my stop on a city bus
In the land of propaganda

These are the days of the years of my life

Watching birds on a drowsy sea
Sittin' in the dark of a family tree
Funeral flowers and paperwork
Drowning my dreams in mountain streams

Standing tall in a cap and gown
And a house that's since torn down
It's summer in the Catskills now
Leisure classes in the mountain passes
The jaws of life and the jaws of death
Hearing secrets in a dying breath
In a black four-door sedan
Down the road to the end of the world

These are the days of the years of my life
These are the days of the years of my life
