Pavement - We Are Underused Lyrics
Out beyond the call of duty --Hold your instincts hostage and stick near meLets drink a toast -- its the most I can stand to cry aboutThe mental energy you wasted on this wedding invitationLets thank the host -- youve been such a perfect hostThe roast was just so perfectly preparedNow I know you care -- now I know you careWe are underusedWe are underusedSimply put, I want to grow old -- dying does not meet my expectationsLets drink a toast to all those who arrived alive to tellAbout their struggles in hushed tones around a fireIts late winter -- lets sink the ship, mix our blood, just the tipA crip is sleeping on the basement stairsOh, I know hes there -- oh, I know hes thereWe are underusedWe are underused, yeah(we are underused.)(we are underused.)(we are underused.)(we are underused.)We are under, under, under, under, underused!(we are underused.)We are under, under, under, under, underused!(we are underused.)
