Existentialist Afternoon Songtext
von Mark Harrington

When I came over
You had beer on your breath
We exchanged stories about
Life and death
Your poetry seemed unemotional
You′ve put the funk
Back in dysfunctional
What was meant
And what was perceived
It's hard to be
Objective you see
With Franz Kafka
JP Sartre
Albert Camus
And me and you
On an existentialist afternoon
We agree to disagree
Books and scrolls
And watering holes
It′s a wonder that we


Are not exchanging roles
Exchanging roles
When I came over
You had beer on your breath
We exchanged stories about
Life and death
Your poetry seemed unemotional
You've gone and put the funk
Back in dysfunctional
Life had changed
We agree to disagree
It's a wonder
It′s a wonder
It′s a
What was meant
And what was perceived
It's hard to be
Objective you see
With Franz Kafka
JP Sartre
Albert Camus
And me and you
On an existentialist afternoon
We agree to disagree
The summer was over
And life had changed
I remember the days
At the book exchange
Books and scrolls and watering holes
It′s a wonder that
We are not exchanging roles
The summer was over
And life had changed
I remember the days
At the book exchange
