May’s Black Garlic Lyrics by Jamie W.C. Graham

Hurricane Violet

2022

44 boxes of tissue paper in her apartment
Bags of tangerines, Palmolive and halls
All of those coupons for the grocery store bound to expire
Her black garlic cloves, you can smell them on the walls
I’m cooking mays black garlic in the kitchen
Trying to get my antioxidants so i don’t look so gaunt
I’m cooking mays black garlic in the kitchen
Trying to stave off disease like she would want
Theres a cruel wisdom in sticking it out year after year
Hobbling to mah jong, in this unrelenting city
Wish that i knew more cantonese words at the hospital bеdside
But I told her that I loved hеr, and she told me i was too skinny
Black garlic from the kai wei supermarket
To keep her nice and healthy, you could smell it in that hall
I’m cooking mays black garlic in the kitchen
Trying to get my antioxidants so I don’t look so gaunt
I’m cooking mays black garlic in the kitchen
Trying to sic doh dee sic doh dee, like she would want
It’s been 15 years in a tiny old house
She said what’s the point of sticking around
Goong-Goong’s gone and I’m ready to go, ready to go, that’s what she said
And sitting here in her tiny old house
I don’t know how long i’m sticking around
But im still here and im cooking it up cooking it up cooking it up
I’m cooking mays black garlic in the kitchen
Trying to get my antioxidants so I don’t look so gaunt
I’m cooking mays black garlic in the kitchen
Trying to fight back the tide like she would want
Like she would want
