Avant Gardener (Live at the Electric Lady Studios)

I sleep in late, another day
Oh, what a wonder, oh, what a waste
It's a Monday, it's so mundane
What exciting things will happen today?

The yard is full of hard rubbish, it's a mess and
I guess the neighbors must think we run a meth lab
We should amend that I pull the sheets back
It's 40 degrees and I feel like I'm dying

Life's getting hard in here, so I do some gardening
Anything to take my mind away from where it's sposed to be
The nice lady next door talks of green beds
And all the nice things she wants to plant in them

I wanna grow tomatoes on the front steps
Sunflowers, bean sprouts, sweet corn and radishes
I feel proactive, I pull out weeds
All of a sudden, I'm having trouble breathing in

I'm having trouble breathing in
I'm having trouble breathing in
I'm having trouble breathing in

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

My hands are shaky, my knees are weak
I can't seem to stand on my own two feet
I'm breathing, but I'm wheezing, feel like I'm emphysem-in'
My throat feels like a funnel filled with weet bix and kerosene and

Oh no, next thing I know they call up triple O
I'd rather die than owe the hospital 'til I get old
I get adrenalin straight to the heart
I feel like Uma Thurman post-overdosing kick-start

Reminds me of the time when I was really sick and I
Had too much pseudoephedrine and I couldn't sleep at night
Halfway down high street, Andy looks ambivalent
He's probably wondering what I'm doing getting in an ambulance

The paramedic thinks I'm clever 'cause I play guitar
I think she's clever 'cause she stops people dying
Anaphylactic and super hypohondriactic
Should've stayed in bed today, I much prefer the mundane
I take a hit from an asthma puffer
I do it wrong, I was never good at smoking bongs

I'm not that good at breathing in
I'm not that good at breathing in
I'm not that good at breathing in

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

Thank you

Fantastic
Thank you, Courtney

You guys wanna do one more, dare I ask or?
Yeah, yeah, we got that, we got that
It'd be silly otherwise
Ah, what should... what you wanna do?
"David", that's good
I'm really bad at making decisions, so

Cool
"David", can we
