Walking to my girlfriend's in telegraph with a hand full of roses

Stopped through a corner store

On the TV a philadelphia cop shot by isis

30 000 people murdered in the usa in 2015

And when I go in the studio later

Today we're gonna put up a mic and about this I might sing

See I don't give a f**k about things

Like who's the best or the worst on twitter

And the other social media money making scheme turning you into a zombie

Jerking you off masturbator procrastinator

While the kids in silicon valley take your money and say

Can we get the check waiter

While they bulldoze your favorite

Building in town and turn it into a f**king fruit shake maker

You got the brains to be the next norman mailer

You got the longevity to be the next elizabeth taylor

You got the class to be the next james f**king spader

You got the swagger to be the next stiv f**king bator

But are you sitting on the toilet

Staring at your phone like a perfectly tailored made to order puppet

I ain't no one's puppet I ain't no one's puppet

I ain't no one's puppet I ain't no one's puppet

I ain't no one's f**king puppet

I ain't no one's f**king puppet I ain't no one's f**king puppet

I ain't no one's f**king puppet

Okay so here I am back home

I'm gonna read another chapter of this book beatlebone

The part so far that's made me the most smile

Is the page that has multiple uses uses of the word wily

That's me a wily motherf**ker

Come to massillon and that's what you get sucker

Gimme a one out of five a big fat ten

Give me a two either way it's all after me

And to all of you I say

Let me ask you do you own your own story

Being pimped the f**k out like a pay for a hoe

If you're a man in charge

Cling with staunch feminists and give a woman your job or shut the f**k up

Queen b**ch is a cool david bowie song

And so is rebel rebel and diamond dogs

Can you hear me to talking to you major tom

Ten nine eight seven six five four three two one

Should my girl be knocking

When we see each other everything's stopping

Yes who my girl be knocking

When we see each other everything'll be stopping

Oh how I love her

Oh how I love her

I'm watching coc*ine cowboys part three

Girlfriend will be here at 7:00 then we're gonna go see a movie

Next week got me a show in la

Just had a nice dinner at the elite cafe

Walk to the movie and decide to skip our plan

Came back turned on the TV and watch the falcon and the snowman

All the way to the end where they're walking side by side

Ankle chains in prison

And we watched a show on the mongols with lisa ling hosting

Then we watched some sh*t about satanists

Taking over detroit

I gotta say detroit being taken over by satanists was pretty soft stuff

Now it's 3:03 am and the rain is pouring down

When I wake in the morning all I care about is that you're around

Now it's 3:04 am and the rain is pouring down

When you're beside me that's all I care about

Oh how I love you

Oh how I love you

Woke up went to the studio

Came back and turned on cnn

David bowie had died there's a picture of el chapo shaking hands with sean penn

Goddamn like I said we watched the falcon and the snowman the night before

With sean penn and timothy hutton

Bowie song played while the falcon soared

This isn't America oh

This isn't America oh

I woke up again went to the studio and I

I tuck myself away

I sang a song in honor of my father

And I sang roy harper's another day

The piano just like the nylon string guitar

It makes me sleepy

And I find myself in bed early for me about 11:30

Bowie's face kept repeating over and over and over and over again

A video of one of my earliest heroes laying in a hospital bed

And more and more sean penn shaking hands with el chapo

That motherf**ker killed ten times more people than jim f**king jones

That motherf**ker killed more people than that

Plus waco

That motherf**ker killed more people than

That crazy f**k did on the norwegian island utø ya and oslo

Go back to the other part now

Go back to the other part now

As I probably took 5:00 am talk to a friend

Who'd met bowie back in '97

The bowie's fiftieth birthday celebration in madison square garden

My first listen was during the summer between

The second and third grade

I flew to see my grandma and my stepgrandfather down in la

I played the song young Americans over and over and over on the airplane

The song chugged along like a train the backup singers wailed

And the saxophone sang

I'm in room 214 normandie hotel koreatown los angeles

Me and my band played last night we played david bowie's win

I think we did it justice

And I talked briefly about the first time that I heard his

Soulful voice on that flight

I was among my friends and my fans and I got to sing

It was a really nice night

Young Americans

Win

Fascination

Right

Can you hear me

Across the universe

Fame

Somebody up there likes me

And he was up on the eleventh floor

Watching the cruisers below

David bowie was original and

That's the part that spoke to me the most

Ooh alright

Ooh

Ooh alright

Ooh

Just back from a play starring rainn wilson

Thom pain thom pain

He pulled it off brilliantly and tomorrow I'm getting on a plane

Getting on a plane

Now I'm back at home reading beatlebone

6:29 am 6:29 am

A work of fiction sorta based on john lennon

Running from fame running from fame

But now I'm at home stayed up late

Waiting for deontay wilder to fight

Deontay wilder to fight

Construction at the hotel that started when it got late when it got late

When we were kings

Glenn frey died so did lemmy

It happens in threes it happens in threes

But more gonna die this year it's around the corner

You'll see you'll see

And I stayed up late that night locking night out

Working like a worker bee working like a worker bee

Then when day lord I watched the marlon brando documentary

And it's 4:36 am

And the rain is pouring

And tomorrow like always

I'm gonna be recording

And it's 4:37 am and the rain is pouring

Tomorrow's gonna be another fantastic voyage

And it's 4:37 am and the rain is pouring

And tomorrow's gonna be another fantastic voyage

Oh how I love you

Oh how I love you

Oh how I love you

Oh how I love you
