Pavement - Shady Lane Lyrics
Blind date with the chancerWe had oysters and dry lancersWhen the check arrived we went dutch, dutch, dutch, dutchA redder shade of neck on a whiter shade of trashAnd this emory board is giving me a rashIm flat outYoure so beautiful to look at when you cryFreeze, dont moveYouve been chosen as an extra in the movie adaptationOf the sequel to your life.A shady lane -- everybody wants oneA shady lane -- everybody needs oneOh my god, oh my god, oh my god, oh my godOh my god, oh your god, oh his god, over godIts everybodys god, its everybodys god, its everybodys god, itsEverybodys godThe worlds collide, but all that we want is a shady laneGlance, dont stareSoon youre being told to recognize your heirsNo, not me -- Im an island of such great complexityStress surrounds in the muddy peaceful center of this townTell me off in the hotel lobby right in front of all the bellboys and theOver-friendly conciergeA shady lane -- everybody wants oneA shady lane -- everybody needs oneOh my god, oh my god, oh my god, oh my godOh my god, oh your god, oh his god, oh her godIts everybodys god, its everybodys god, its everybodys god, itsEverybodys godThe worlds collide, but all that I want is a shady lane.
