Inspired by "Our Singer" by Pavement

lyrics

I'll let you down
All my chips are on the table
I'll hold my breath
We're forever young and able
I'm in the burbs
Watching Tommy Boy on cable
A hand rockin' the cradle

Take me back to the bus station where I arrived
How I'd string up my guitar and watch the winters die
I'd make the world stop spinning if I really tried
A backstabber, just killing time

I'll break my back
Lifting concrete blocks above my head
I'll be my death
Flipping photos in a fire bed
I'll switch the channel
Watching Wings and Billy Madison
Until the Moon comes out again

Take me back to the blackout of 2003
The panicked North East wondering what was happening
While you were scared Al Qaeda'd caused a system breach
We drove my mom's car to the beach

I let you down...

I'll let you down
All my chips are on the table
I'll hold my breath
We're forever young and able
I'm in the burbs
Watching Tommy Boy on cable
A hand rockin' the cradle
