a song called "no phone"

29.april.05: it’s weird the songs that pop into your head as you’re walking about. i think an obvious one is whenever a double-decker bus, um, “crashes into us, to die by your side is such a heavenly way to die.” i can’t think of the term without The Smiths song going off in my brain.

there’s also a lot of stickers that are plastered on doors that say “fire door – keep shut.” as it happens, there’s a song by ani difranco called “fire door” that has only 2 bars of a guitar loop (a quite catchy one at that) behind all the interesting lyrics. those two bars can burrow themselves so deep into my skull that it will take neurosurgeons years to clean it out.

what’s worse is, because i have been without a regular contact phone for some time, there’s a song by Cake called “no phone,” and its chorus goes something like this: “no phone, no phone,” something something something something, “no phone, no phone,” i can’t remember the rest.

but i remember the words “no phone” plenty well.well enough to be driven insane by them.
