A Few Days Ago

lyrics

A few days ago
I was staring at Claude the albino
Alligator now I’m staying up too late staring at the news at night
I need a new ritual

It’s been a fall I won’t soon forget
So many good ones are gone
Don’t talk to me about the president elect

The Great American Music Hall
I’m listening to music tonight with my dad, that’s all

None of my stories seem to be
As heavy as the toughest year 2016

A few days ago
My dad was with me in San Francisco
We took a drive up north
To see redwood trees

On November 5 2016
The same night Ronald T. Merritt Junior died on Market Street

Dad ate Japanese ramen for the first time
We went to Old Jerusalem on election night

And spent some quiet days
Then he headed home in an airplane
