Old To Begin

Pavement · Brighten the Corners [1997]

Embrace the senile genius

Watch him reinvent the wheel

I don't need your summary acts, summary acts to give into the narrative

Age



Old to begin -- I will set you back, set you back, set you

Old to begin -- I will set you back, set you back, set you



We get to feeling like a fixture

Set in 1966 -- time came that we drifted apart

Drifted apart to find an identical twin



Old to begin -- I will set you back, set you back, set you

Old to begin -- I will set you back, set you back, fella



Searching for latent cause -- blame it on menopause

Or perhaps stress and strain -- credit cards, lumbar pain

But I've seen your double dares everything extraordinaire

I know the things you do are gonna come back
