I'm honestly flattered
And violent blooms of flowered dresses
I wasn't ready for all this nature
Before we push that dull turnstile into the passage
And hey Jim, Kerouac, a brother of the famous Jack
And we could wait our lives before a chance arrives
I haven't got the courage yet
But if she asks me out, I'll be hers without a doubt
I'll be yours without a doubt on that Big Dipper
I'm sitting on the Cafe Xeno's steps
From the top you can see Monterey or think about San Jose
And afternoons that make me sleepy
Cigarettes and carrot juice and get yourself a new tattoo
Watching all the world go by
We could play it real cool and act somewhat indifferent
Though I know it's not that pleasant
But we could wait awhile
I'm sitting on the Cafe Xeno's steps with a book I haven't started yet
Before the passage
The thousands they have tread and others sometimes fled
For those sleeveless days of June
I haven't got the courage yet
And if the sound of this it frightens you
On that Big Dipper
He's sitting on the Cafe Xeno's steps with a girl I'm not over yet
Why'd you have to come around, so soon?
Or so he likes to say, lucky bastard
And hey June why'd you have to come
Could I take you out?
Watching all the girls walk by
Boy you're looking bad, did I make you feel that sad?
Before the turn came
The terrible green green grass
