NEW MEMORIES
Way back when you were mine
Once upon a different time
We would lie in bed all day
You'd demonstrate your old pliés
As shadows stretched across the wall
And summer slowly stretched to fall
You had those lovely leather boots
And several others in pursuit
I remember beds in Rome
And several different ones at home
The first one followed us out west
But the third one was the best
It took some time to dawn on us
A decent mattress is a must
That's not a thing you simply know
Until time proves it to be so
I need
Some new memories
I have used up all of these
This weed
Induces reveries
And forgives all treacheries
The third was the first we bought new
It seemed a crazy thing to do
Fresh springs that did not squeak
A headboard without a creak
We'd stay in bed till afternoon
We'd both get stoned and watch cartoons
Felt like precious luxuries
And we had precious few of these
I need
Some new memories
I have used up all of these
This weed
Induces reveries
And forgives all treacheries

NEW MEMORIES (part 2)
We regretted mattress four
Did it cause our current war?
Liked the soft one with more give
But I chose to make due with
The firmer model you preferred
Not knowing what I just stirred
Barely sensed our slow decline
Just went to bed at different times
I need
Some new memories
I have used up all of these
This weed
Induces reveries
And forgives all treacheries
On mattress five I lie alone
Reading old texts on my phone
Emojis few and far between
Now and then you'd use The Scream
Shadows kept creeping along
Nights kept turning into dawn
Woke up one day with a yawn
And reached for someone who was gone
I need
Some new memories
I have used up all of these
This weed
Induces reveries
And forgives all treacheries
I remember feeling glad
Can't feel the feeling that I had

SNOW DAY
These billboards are bothering me
I don't wanna buy your fucking clothes
Who the hell named this street?
Sick of walking the same way home
I went to bed and I dreamed about
the boring day that just went by
Bells are pealing in the distance
I'm unravelling inside
I declare a snow day
Not gonna work, no way
I am great you're ok
Remain inside stay out of my way
I used to love to watch it fall
snow, snow don't go away
I never went to church
but I sure knew how to pray
A Saturday nobody planned
Never guessed teachers liked em, too
Lots of words I like
Those were my favorite two
I declare a snow day
Not gonna work, no way
I am great you're ok
Remain inside stay out of my way
Should I punch the clock or punch the boss?
All snow does now is make me late
Doesn't mean much at all
just one more thing to hate
Jump under the covers, at first you freeze
Pretty soon you never wanna leave
Today is cancelled, alert the press
Getting up is too treacherous

Too Much Joy Scarsdale, New York
TMJ is/was a punk-pop band of some minor renown. Some of that renown was due to their music, which included semi-hits such as “Crush Story,” “Donna Everywhere,” and “That’s a Lie” — a cover of the LL Cool J tune that featured the man himself in the music video, which actually got played quite a bit during daylight hours on MTV back when they did that sort of thing. ... more
