That Time

Regina Spektor

Hey remember the time when I found a human tooth down on Delancey 
Hey remember that time we decided to kiss anywhere except the mouth 
Hey remember that time when my favorite colors were pink and green 
Hey remember that month when I only ate boxes of tangerines 
So cheap and juicy, tangerines 

Hey remember that time when I would only read Shakespeare 
Hey remember that other time when I would only read the backs of cereal boxes 
Hey remember that time I tried to save a pigeon with a broken wing 
A street cat got him by morning and I had to bury pieces of his body in my building's playground 
I thought I was going to be sick, I thought I was going to be sick 

Hey remember that time when I would only smoke Parliaments 
Hey remember that time when I would only smoke Marlboros 
Hey remember that time when I would only smoke Camels 
Hey remember that time when I was broke 
I didn't care I just bummed from my friends 
Bum, bum, bum, bum, bum... 

Hey remember that time when you od'ed 
Hey remember that other time when you od'ed for the second time 
Well in the waiting room while waiting for news of you I hallucinated I could read your mind 
And I was on a lot of shit too but what I saw, man, I tell you it was freaky, freaky
