Periodically Double or Triple - Yo La Tengo

Never read Proust

Seems a little too long

Never used the hammer

Without somehow using it wrong

I’ve got time on my hands

That I can’t wash off

I’m guzzling vitamin C but

I can’t shake this cough

Walls are closing in

They often do

I’m seeing double and triple

Does this ever happen to you?

I don’t have to make it rain

But I never argue with improving the view

Never wear a helmet

When I’m riding a bike

Never recall a face

To me, they all look alike

I’ve got a hole in my brain

Where what I meant to say lives

I’m livin' in the past

The gift that gives and gives

Walls are closing in

They often do

I’m seeing double and triple

Does this ever happen to you?

I don’t have to make it rain

But I never argue with improving the view

Sometimes

In the future tense

I hope that you are safer

Put up an electric fence

Then and only then

We can all get along

Get it down in writing

Judge Judy tell me if I’m wrong

Walls are closing in

They often do

I’m seeing double and triple

Does this ever happened to you?

I don’t have to make it rain

But I never argue with improving the view
