Artist/Band: Pavement
Lyrics for Song: In the Mouth of a Desert
Lyrics for Album: Quarantine the Past: The Best of Pavement [2010]



can you treat it like an oil well

when it's underground out of sight?

and if the sight is just a whore sign

can it make enough sense to me?

pretend the table is a trust knot

we'll put our labels down faith is down

and watch the yards of twine unravel

and you'll never get it back



it's what i want (it's what i want)

it's what i want (twine comes down)

it's what i want (it's what i want)

don't you know

I could make a try



well i've been crowned, the king of it

and it is all we have so wait

to hear my words and

they're diamond sharp

i could open it up and it's up and down



it's what i want (it's what i want)

I see you beg like a little dog (ball and twine)

don't ya know that it's what i want (it's what i want)

I'll see ya beg and

it makes a try, make me try, make me try, make me try

i've been down, the king of it

'Cause all we have I've been down

And I could wait to hear my words and

they're diamond sharp today


Napaca.
