mark kozelek & desertshore - katowice or cologne lyrics

walkin’ down west 33rd street
to macy’s past jack dempsey’s
past the neon lights in madison square
i need a heavier coat to wear
where are you off to, where are you goin’?
went off to germany and then to poland
myslowice or katowice
oh baby can i get a kiss?
another taste of your sweetness
another night in your heavenliness
another look at you wearing nothing
but that bracelet on your skinny wrist
i fell asleep and i had a dream
it was summer on the beach st. augustine

and the water was warm and blue
i was playing in a small room
i met a brunette in a pretty dress
went to her ac’ed apartment
she smoked a joint and she drank absinthe
and laid there like a slab of cement

and i left and we lost touch
sh-t i can’t say i really missed her much
and when i left we fell out of touch
and i doubt she ever thought of me much
i woke up and i didn’t wanna go
looked out the window at the blinding white snow
but i still got my taxi though
said goodbye, shut off my phone
i waited for an hour at the terminal
writing notes in my moleskin journal
after all these years i still panic
when i cross the godd-mn atlantic

squeezed into seat 33b
sippin’ starbucks gunpowder tea
try to remember some of my tunings
all of them c-g-c-f-g-c
well it’s all i ever really need
to get from point a to point z
to get from alesund to leaning tree
and in the worst shape i can always sing

jetlagged as f-ck in beijing
after a sleepless all night fling
with the stomach flu in ireland
with strep throat in newfoundland
i just need a decent guitar tone
and a 58 microphone
a pretty girl in the front row
i don’t need a drink, i don’t need no blow
to get through a two hour show
in katowice or cologne

oh when i get home
gonna sleep til the cows come home
and take a little trip you know
out to anchorage or juneau
maybe oaxaca, mexico
oh f-ck i really don’t know
what i’m gonna do when i’m home
i might just stay in san francisco
take a weekend in pescadero
dig up some abalone
go fishin’ for some cabazone
go fishin for some sandsharks
go fishin’ till it gets dark
go pickin’ some artichokes
then run a hot bath and soak
then run a hot bath and soak
