Τα κορίτσια γυρίζουν σπίτι με τα αυτοκίνητα τους

Μιας και έχει πέσει διάβασμα τον τελευταίο καιρο:




όπως φαίνεται άλλωστε και απ'τα τελευταία ποστ:

Και επηρεασμένη από το μουσικό κλίμα μπουκόφσκι που αναμένεται να κάνει θραύση απ΄το φθινόπωρο:

Ορίστε λίγη πραγματικότητα στριμωγμένη σε ένα ποίημα.

Ιν γιορ φέις λάικ α σλαπ:

girls coming home in their cars

the girls are coming home in their cars

and I sit by the window and

watch.

there's a girl in a red dress

driving a white car

there's a girl in a blue dress

driving a blue car

there's a girl in a pink dress

driving a red car

as the girl in the red dress

gets out of the white car

I look at her legs

as the girl in the blue dress

gets out of the blue car

I look at her legs

as the girl in the pink dress

gets out of the red dress

I look at her legs

the girl in the red dress

who gets out of the white car

has the best legs

the girl in the pink dress

who gets out of the red car

has medium legs

but I keep remembering the girl in the blue dress

who got out of the blue car

I almost saw her panties

you don't know how exciting

life can get around here

at 5.35 p.m.

Και για άλλη μια φορά δεν θα τον γλιτώσετε τον κάσιο:

Blue Corolla

we used to drive to phoenix in the summers
to see your sister & mom & go swimming in the pool
we'd take the 15 to the 40 over to route 66
before we dropped out of school

now you work at a candy store
& we don't talk so much anymore
but i still wonder sometimes
if you've still got that same ride
with the dents on the driver's side

we used to drive to phoenix in the summers
to see your sister & mom & go swimming in the pool
you were 21 & i was almost 20
the year we dropped out of school

White Jetta

been this way for almost all my life
wasn't born here Mom & me moved here when I was 5
these Kansas City boys are dull as butter knives

had this little car since I was 17
the tape is busted got a boom box in the back seat
blasting Misfits all up & down these streets

to stay the same to never change
to stay the same to never change

the college kids in KC all leave in the fall
don't have time for letters or long distance calls
if friend you leave then friend you're dead to me

Mom's been sick now for a long time
she says she hopes I'll want a family after she's died
she says the less you feel like a child
the more you'll want a child

to stay the same to never change
to stay the same to never change
to stay the same to never change
to stay the same to never change
