SONG: Type Slowly
ARTIST: Pavement
ALBUM: Brighten The Corners (Track 6)
Standard Tuning
Sherri, you smell different
Get up early in the bed, for you morning comes so easy
Spells have been cast and the urge has been lost
Snipers posted bills -- as they should -- of our midnight vacation
Back on the planet now – I’m beginning to see just how
Echelon your dreams and they’ll come true
Type slowly
One of us is a cigar stand --
And one of us is a lovely blue incandescent guillotine
The edge of creation is blurred and blushed
Not a lot of room to grow inside this leather terrarium
People of the bay -- it is excruciatingly gray
Face the front when he comes for you
Type slowly
Cherish your memorized weakness
Fashioned from a manifesto -- lady, I am no futurist
I’m my only critic, I
Trolls in the glen are consorting again
The liberals say they don’t exist but I know that they do
Reinforce your literal ass -- hit it on the first or second pass
Frozen images, respected few
Type slowly
Wow, that took me a long time...I must have typed too slowly...
