mayonaka sugi made yatteru
ookii na honya de
shibaraku hima wo tsubushiteta
hurui tomodachi ga notteru
zasshi wo tachi yomishitari
hoshi uranai wo yondari shiteta
soshite terebi no gaido to
besuto sera no shoosetsu
hurui tomodachi ga notteru zasshi to
sore ni watashi ga notteru zasshi mo
matomete minna kaado de haratta
doyoo no gogo dake aiteru
ookina furiimaaketto
hitori de hima wo tsubushiteta
kinoo ha kangae gotoshite
asa made okite ita kedo

---------------------------------------
I was passing the time for a while
in a large bookstore
open until midnight
I was reading through magazines
with my old friends in them
reading the horoscope
and then A TV guide and
a best seller
a magazine my friend is in
and a magazine that I'm in
Paid for the whole thing by credit card
at the big free market
opens only on Saturday afternoon
I was passing the time alone
yesterday, I was thinking about things
I stayed awake until morning but
I slipped out of bed anyway
a cheap lampshade and
an old movie poster
and Tibet tea and
cut, white flowers and
an Afghan coat
I haggled and got a good deal
when I have a lover
I am in love but...
even if I don't have a lover
it's no big deal
and then on the way back
from Saturday afternoon shopping
following behind me
a small dog, a funny dog
this dog who followed me, barking as it does
even if I don't have a lover
it's no big deal
but even if I don't have a lover
I am in love...
