Kurt Vile — "Pretty Pimpin" (09/24/15)

Kurt Vile performs a track from his album b'lieve i'm goin down....

Lyrics:

I woke up this morning,
Didn't recognize the man in the mirror
Of then I laughed and said, oh, silly me, that's just me
Then I proceeded to brush some stranger's teeth, but they were
my teeth and I was weightless just quivering like some leaf
come in the window of a restroom I couldn't tell you what the
hell it was supposed to mean but it was a Monday, no a Tuesday,
no, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday then Saturday came around and I
said who's this stupid clown block the bathroom sink?

All he ever wanted was to be someone in life that was just
like, all I want is to just have fun, live my life like a son
of a gun
I could be 1,000 miles away but still mean weigh say

Then I woke up this morning.
Didn't recognize the man in the mirror.
Then I laughed and said, oh, silly me, that's just me then I
proceeded ton comb some stranger's hair.
Never was my style
But I couldn't tell you what the hell it was supposed to mean
Because it was a Monday, no a Tuesday, no, Wednesday, Thursday,
Friday
Then Saturday came around and I said who's this stupid clown
blocking the bathroom sink?
But he was sporting all my clothes
I gotta say I'm pretty pimpin
All he ever wanted was to be a man but he was always a little
too cute to be admitted under marbles lost
He was always 1,000 miles away while still standing in front of
your face
Then he woke up this morning, didn't recognize the boy in the
mirror then I laughed and said, oh, silly me, that's just me
Then I proceeded to brush some stranger's teeth, but they were
my teeth and I was weightless
Just quivering like some leaf come in the window of a restroom

And I couldn't tell you what the hell it was supposed to mean.
Cause it was a Monday, no a Tuesday, no, Wednesday, Thursday,
Friday
Then Saturday came around and I said who's this stupid clown
blocking the bathroom sink?
But he was sporting all my clothes
I gotta say pretty pimpin
