lyrics

Amsterdam you humid bastard
all my clothes are soaked
but I bought more in the second hand market
on Haarlemmer Road
I fell in love with Vincent Van Gogh
he was just as fucked up as me
and I feel an affinity with anyone on the periphery

a wander in Amsterdam
me and my mother
we went back again
with nothing to lose
like a child

I was just a child then

I met my mother, we got on the yellow tram line
we were talking about Summer
a little girl who was a friend of mine
we walked the old streets I played on
I was just a child then
we ended up at the old apartment
it used to be a heroin den

a wander in Amsterdam
me and my mother
we went back again
with nothing to lose
like a child
