about

this one I wrote on the Sunshine Coast in British Columbia, at the dead
end road off the Highway 101 in a little village with wonderful people. And
one of the evenings we all sat together and she told that story, and I wrote it down the next day.

lyrics

Looker


i was a looker once i roamed through the streets
of vancouvers eastside with my friends & my dreams
we called it a night
when we heard the birds
singing on the dumpsters
along with the dawn

and her eyes got that glance of dares & regrets
of wallpapered memories and a youth in the west

i was looker once even though i dont look like it anymore
there was a time every man turned his head
i woke up on an RV
in mid downtown
all drunken & bare
to the people‘s glares

i was a looker once you see that picture in that jar
that was... well... i still had my car
there she was
making a face
all fadet out
with spiderwebs around

i was a looker once they call me the garden woman now
i bought this trailer for 400 buxx 5 years ago
so i had to swear
to plant all the plants
although its rainforest
on the owners land

i was a looker once she said to me & smiled
i was a looker once you wanna have another joint
and her eyes got that glance
of dares & regrets
of polaroid memories
& the best in the west
