Clodhopper - cafe jolie lyrics

rate me

rolling up broadway, 6am

brothers all out still in their beds

just walking down a street in oaktown

going to work

past the empty ball courts and mosswood park

and ov-er to mac-arthur boulevard

i'm just walking down a street in oaktown

going to work

smells like fog and eucalyptus trees

as i unlock the door, hey feel my breeze

i'm a man, damnit ... i'm the man with the key

and i'm out with a broom gettin' the sidewalk clean

when the bus blows by, throws it back at me

but i'm smiling ... in the flowerboxes

cafe jolie, pretty as you please

cafe jolie, it's pretty to me

cafe jolie, great as you please

cafe jolie, it's pretty to me

hiss of a grill and the crash of a dish

there's a girl from the art school, check out that bitch

j.j.'s got his hands.. down his pants

cuz in the back he's shoutin' at me

"hey why you always shoutin' at me?"

cos it's loud here ... and i want you to hear me

i'm in love with the waitress, she's rubbin her eye

ignored and frowning, looks me in the eye

said "i didn't sleep much" "well hey neither did i"

cafe jolie, pretty as you please

cafe jolie, pretty to me

cafe jolie, pretty as you please

cafe jolie, it's pretty to me

[breakdown]

oh my god it's Huey P

well i wish they'd never set him free

i'm afraid of his eyes .. no i don't wanna go there

and my mom had a picses por figlio

and he slept on the couch like a fatto, che no

jorge's got the biggest smile you ever saw

and it's down to the store for more Old Crow

or vodka for their orange juice, i don't know

while they clean up, we're dancing

you drop the bomb on me

cafe jolie, pretty as you please

cafe jolie, it's pretty to me

cafe jolie, great as you please

cafe jolie, it's pretty to me

cafe jolie (and the sun's up now)

pretty as you please (and it's 2 in the afternoon)

cafe jolie (and i'm out the front door)

it's pretty to me (just cash my check)

cafe jolie (and i'm walking down broadway)

great as you please (past oakland 10 now)

cafe jolie (and the brothers are driving by)

it's pretty to me (with their mad dog stare)

cafe jolie (and i'm blasting to shore)

pretty as you please (and i wish i was too sure)

cafe jolie (but i don't wish i was too short)

[fade out]
