St. Vincent - Dilettante Lyrics
Oh Elijah, don't make me waitNobody's winningThe sharks are swimming in the redOh Elijah, don't make me waitWhile you are sleepingMy mind goes creaking down the hallSlow down, dilettanteSo I can limp beside youAnd follow in your house tooHang on, street savantMy bank in my back pocketHow far you think it'll take us?You're like a party I heard through a wallAnd I'm always watching you through a keyholeLet's not forget, let's not forgetLet's not forget, why we crawled hereOh Elijah, don't make me waitI got no patience for an estrangement, anywayWake up, avenue CYour hometown is still sleepingYou're like a party I heard through the wallInvite meBut I'm always watching you through a keyholeLet's not forget, let's not forgetLet's not forget, where we crawled fromOh Elijah, don't make me waitWhat is so pressingYou can't undress me anyway?
