Borneo - The Fiery Furnaces[00:00:00]

Written by：Matthew Friedberger[00:00:00]

I was so bored with my old life[00:00:00]

I was so bored with decent odds[00:00:04]

My new roommate left her debit card[00:00:19]

Some sort of test for me it's too hard[00:00:21]

Try to run an errand nervous sweat[00:00:24]

I rush back home and if I win I'll give her half[00:00:26]

I bet[00:00:28]

Online casino in the Caymans[00:00:29]

Legal disclaimer writ for layman's[00:00:32]

I moved back into New Canaan[00:00:37]

Babysit my sister's kids it's rainin'[00:00:40]

They fuss a bit while I put them to bed[00:00:42]

And grumpy sitting on the couch I get it in my head[00:00:45]

Take metro north a silver candlestick[00:00:48]

To Aquaduct on Lirr Pick[00:00:51]

I was so bored with my new life[00:00:56]

I felt like I knew all the odds[00:01:00]

I bet 'gainst myself I wouldn't wager[00:01:14]

My boyfriend's mother's mansion nothing major[00:01:17]

I stole the deed one night when she was drunk[00:01:19]

I drove onto the reservation with it in my trunk[00:01:22]

Sensors beep the threshold when I crossed it[00:01:25]

Thirty thousand marker soon I lost it[00:01:28]

Baltimore inner harbor sports zone[00:01:33]

Being courted he's talking on his cell phone[00:01:36]

Let me tell you why I think I love her[00:01:38]

She knows you always take the bye[00:01:41]

Week dome home team to cover[00:01:42]

Go up to Pimlico and I choose[00:01:44]

It's no fun if it's fine when you lose[00:01:47]

I was so tired with all the angles[00:01:52]

I was so bored with losin' easy[00:01:56]

So I gambled on going further a field[00:02:12]

So I flew to Sydney and then to Bali[00:02:15]

And then to Jakarta[00:02:17]

And called on my step father's ex business partner[00:02:19]

Major Timmy Sastrosatomo[00:02:22]

And he set me up as a silver smithbatik dabber[00:02:25]

In a house once owned by the princess of Mataran[00:02:29]

And he told me all his troubles[00:02:41]

We bribed a C F O at Semen Cibinong[00:03:00]

To get them to buy a 40 percent stake[00:03:03]

And we got a 5 million dollar order from Nieman Marcus[00:03:05]

Which we filled about 10 percent[00:03:08]

But I did sell them my children's book[00:03:11]

Which I said was a South Sumatran[00:03:13]

Folk tale which went like this[00:03:14]

I played cards for seven days straight[00:03:20]

Was up 47 dollars late[00:03:23]

Evening as the sun went down I saw[00:03:25]

The ace of diamonds up his sleeve black velvet on his paw[00:03:28]

I fold say goodbye politely[00:03:31]

They bark you don't get off that lightly[00:03:34]

I dreamed of a casino[00:03:49]

Way up in the hills of Borneo[00:03:51]

Where I lost with the giant flying squirrels[00:03:53]

And orangutans and great[00:03:55]

Morman butterflies all day long[00:03:57]

'Til the bulldozers turned us into whole fruit fruit bar sticks[00:04:02]

And China markers[00:04:05]
