I wanted to write something that had a Wes Anderson /Paul Simon vibe. I was also influenced by my friend Adam Burrows rambling Bob Dylan style. Dig my mood:)
lyrics
The pigeons in the underpass
watched me on the way to Mass
Went to see a friend, I'm not a Catholic
The architecture was immaculate, The mural prized
But I was raised a protestant, nomad at 25
Though I believe in Jesus Christ
Father and The Holy Ghost
Between you and me and this old bed post
I don't know who I am down to the core
I've lost hope and direction, I can't find it anymore
Chorus:
Sister Julianne, Sister Julianne
What's the point to pretend
Sister Julianne, now that summer's at an end
I've got a broken soul to mend
Knowledge speaks but wisdom listens
I learned that from Jimi Hendrix
Don't know why sometimes I just keep talking
While Lazarus slept in peace out by the garden gate
I walked around and mumbled in the morning purple haze
(Repeat Chorus)

The pigeons in the underpass watched me on the way to Mass
