and yesterday was like today

Woke up, got up, near eleven o'clock 

butt naked except I was wearing my socks 

and that's cool, 'cause most the time this floor is cold 

stand up and stretch look around this mess 

my place has been a cage since she left me 

make my way to the kitchen, start the coffee 

then dip to the bathroom, begin the triple-s 

and wash the previous evening off me 

now out the shower, get dry, shove a q-tip in my ear 

well, what do we have here? 

it appears as if a piece of me has got motivation 

ain't nothin' wrong with a little morning masturbation 

fresh, dressed like fifty cents 

clean and awake now I'm ready to commence 

spark up the caffeine and nicotine binge 

and that's pretty much the pattern of how the day begins 

and I write for an hour, maybe half hour more 

then put on my shoes and grab my key for the door 

put my headphones on for this world I ignore 

trek down the street towards the record store 

"hey, bro - how you doing, anything new today?" 

"nah man, how you been? it's the same old same again" 

well, then I'll be gone, friend, I'll see you around 

then I'm out, destination uptown 

in the summertime the women wear a lot of skin 

and if I sit in one spot I can take 'em all in 

sometimes I even talk, to see if I can make one grin 

if not, yo, it's cool I ain't gonna take it personally 

from Anne Landers, to Ani DiFranco to Orphan Annie 

I love all women, but most of them just can't stand me 

I don't know, maybe it's my hair or my clothes 

"...or maybe she noticed that you was diggin in you're nose..." 

either way it's okay, I wasn't tryin' to get laid 

I just wanted to say "I hope you have a great day" 

and then she stopped with a smile that began to blush 

"here, take my number, call me up, I'll come over and make you lunch" 

I got up and headed down towards the book store 

to check the titles, that my man Michael's got me lookin' for 

my visit was short, 'cause I just couldn't feel 

that cat behind the counter actin' like I'm here to steal 

so I dipped back out into a cloud of tattoos 

pierced body parts and colorful hairdos 

and I questioned, did Babylon resemble this? 

are we getting any closer to the end of the list? 

a sensuous kiss, placed on apoco-lips 

we teach them how to make a fist, but not to resist 

and I'm wondering how'd we find this position 

but people are people and I still love 'em, especially the women 

onwards to the coffee shop, maybe Muddies for a refill and some 

sociological studies 

see the junkies, while they co-exist with the sobers 

all the bugging of eyeballs, the shrugging of shoulders 

and that's when I saw her, sippin' on water 

I wanna kiss her mom just for having this daughter 

excuse me miss, I don't mean to come across strong 

but I've been waitin' a while and you've been taking too long 

and she smiled and I began to blush 

she asked if I'd like to go to the bathroom and make some love 

and I got visions of us, and the mirror getting steamed 

and that's the very moment I woke up from the dream 

Photos 

Woke up, got up, near eleven o'clock 

butt naked except I was wearing my socks 

and that's cool, 'cause most the time this floor is cold 

stand up and stretch and look for my soul 

In tomorrow I see no promise 

and yesterday was like today 

In tomorrow I see no promise 

and yesterday was like today 

In tomorrow I see no promise 

and yesterday was like today 

In tomorrow I see no promise 

and yesterday was like today
