9.That Time

Hey remember the time when I found a human tooth down on
Delancey
Hey remember that time we decided to kiss anywhere except the
mouth
Hey remember that time when my favorite colors were pink and
green
Hey remember that month when I only ate boxes of tangerines
So cheap and juicy, tangerines

Hey remember that time when I would only read Shakespeare
Hey remember that other time when I would only read the backs of
cereal boxes
Hey remember that time I tried to save a pigeon with a broken
wing
A street cat got him by morning and I had to bury pieces of his
body in my building's playground
I thought I was going to be sick, I thought I was going to be
sick

Hey remember that time when I would only smoke Parliaments
Hey remember that time when I would only smoke Marlboros
Hey remember that time when I would only smoke Camels
Hey remember that time when I was broke
I didn't care I just bummed from my friends
Bum, bum, bum, bum, bum...

Hey remember that time when you od'ed
Hey remember that other time when you od'ed for the second time
Well in the waiting room while waiting for news of you I
hallucinated I could read your mind
And I was on a lot of shit too but what I saw, man, I tell you
it was freaky, freaky
