jandek – message to the clerk, pt.2 lyrics

Loading...

first i came to see the doctor, told him i was unemployed
asked me what i did for money, told him i was overjoyed
to reach into the basket, take a bunch of dimes
drop them near the paper riddled with my rhymes
take a message to the clerk, tell him not to work
then i came to the priest, said i knew god was alive
he looked at me quite solemn, said “son don’t give me that jive”
i reached into my pocket, pulled out a .45
said “priest i got your number, and this here ain’t no jive”
take a message to the clerk, tell him not to work
then i came to see the man at the center of the town
said “hey there mister leader, you’re looking at a clown
i don’t engage in nothing except hangin’ around
i’m living high, i’m living low, i’m just screaming the sound”

take a message to the clerk, tell him not to work
then i came to see myself, i got a nervous quirk
behind a gun i lurk, he looks to me berserk
he pushes (?) at his time, he’s running down a line
face all dripping down, carrying a sign
take a message to the clerk, tell him not to work
and now you’re independent, brush your teeth three times a day
remember how i told you, remember how i say
that you’ve seen a hundred persons, and you’ve called me down today
just to hear how lovely it sounds to hear me say
take a message to the clerk, tell him not to work
