Every Saturday, we’ll be posting a new illustration by David Lester. The Mecca Normal guitarist is visually documenting people, places and events from his band’s 35-year run, with text by vocalist Jean Smith.
Between Livermore And Tracy
He’s got the white coat, no stethoscope
Cause the movement to die out
Several times over
Walking the walls
A cardiologist, white coat, no stethoscope
Between Livermore and Tracy
On rotation
Uneventful, one uneventful night
Just one uneventful night
In the hall, he wouldn’t know left from right
He’s got the white coat, no stethoscope
Between Livermore and Tracy
In rotation
Just one, just one uneventful night
Just one night of sleep
Between Livermore and Tracy
Can you hear delirium with that machine
or is it just me?
Between delirium and quick clarity
Delirium
