[00:00.00]Avant Gardener - Courtney Barnett
[00:39.28]I sleep in late
[00:40.41]
[00:41.19]Another day
[00:42.30]
[00:43.34]Oh what a wonder
[00:44.80]
[00:45.46]Oh what a waste
[00:46.88]
[00:47.84]It's a monday
[00:49.18]
[00:49.72]It's so mundane
[00:51.12]
[00:51.63]What exciting things
[00:52.98]Will happen today
[00:54.81]
[00:55.98]The yard is full of hard rubbish
[00:58.02]It's a mess and
[01:00.08]I guess the neighbours must think
[01:02.43]We run a meth lab
[01:04.36]We should ammend that
[01:06.45]I pull the sheets back
[01:08.39]It's 40 degrees
[01:09.99]And I feel like I'm dying
[01:12.10]
[01:12.70]Life's getting hard in here
[01:14.57]So I do some gardening
[01:16.83]Anything to take my mind away from
[01:19.24]Where It's s'posed to be
[01:21.37]The nice lady next door talks
[01:23.89]Of green beds
[01:25.07]And all the nice things that she
[01:27.19]Wants to plant in them
[01:29.11]
[01:29.69]I wanna grow tomatoes on the front steps
[01:33.39]Sunflowers bean sprouts
[01:35.90]Sweet corn and radishes
[01:37.86]I feel pro-active
[01:39.28]
[01:40.15]I pull out weeds
[01:41.48]
[01:42.32]All of a sudden
[01:43.87]I'm having trouble breathing in
[01:46.53]
[01:48.02]I'm having trouble breathing in
[01:50.79]
[01:52.39]I'm having trouble breathing in
[01:55.07]
[01:56.15]I'm having trouble breathing in
[01:59.80]
[02:36.83]My hands are shaky
[02:38.31]
[02:38.87]My knees are weak
[02:40.30]
[02:40.92]I can't seem to stand
[02:42.55]On my own two feet
[02:43.91]
[02:44.66]I'm breathing but I'm wheezing
[02:46.66]Feel like I'm emphysem in'
[02:48.86]My throat feels like a funnel
[02:50.55]Filled with weet bix and kerosene and
[02:53.33]Oh no next thing I know
[02:55.65]They call up triple o
[02:57.45]I'd rather die than owe the hospital
[03:00.10]Till I get old
[03:01.71]I get adrenaline
[03:03.45]Straight to the heart
[03:05.38]I feel like Uma Thurman
[03:07.34]Post-overdosing kick start
[03:10.27]Reminds me of the time
[03:11.85]When I was really sick and I
[03:13.87]Had too much pseudoephedrine and I
[03:16.12]Couldn't sleep at night
[03:17.72]
[03:18.42]Halfway down high street
[03:20.34]Andy looks ambivalent
[03:22.09]He's probably wondering
[03:22.96]What I'm doing getting in an ambulance
[03:25.90]
[03:26.54]The paramedic thinks
[03:27.88]I'm clever cos I play guitar
[03:30.67]I think she's clever cos she stops people dying
[03:34.21]
[03:34.72]Anaphylactic and super hypocondriactic
[03:38.88]Should've stayed in bed today
[03:40.65]I much prefer the mundane
[03:43.17]I take a hit from
[03:45.07]An asthma puffer
[03:47.32]I do It wrong
[03:48.74]I was never good at smoking bongs
[03:51.73]
[03:52.86]I'm not that good at breathing in
[03:56.24]
[03:57.11]I'm not that good at breathing in
[03:59.82]
[04:01.08]I'm not that good at breathing in
