...And Carrot Rope - Pavement

Spiral: I want to say:

SM: It’s my second hand wonder,

a thing that recovers the doubt

Spiral: Slim door,

Mark: Like a rainstorm, you’ve got to do what you want and say it SM: It’s of my design assembled at the cut

Spiral: Slim door,

SM: It’s all right to shake, to fight, to feel

Mark: You go down, down, down, down

Spiral: Slim door,

SM: It’s all right to shake, to fight, to feel

Mark: You go down, down, down, down

SM: Harness your hopes to the folks

with the liquor with the ropes,

Red, red ropes, periscopes

They’ve got everything will ever need

stored under the chair

Simmer, simmer, simmer down

SM: A little, little Christian lie,

A little, little Christian lie

A little, little Christian lie,

A little, little Christian lie

Let’s get down to brass tacks and start it A carrot rope, feed my thrill,

A carrot rope, feed my thrill,

I got beat by weather

Carrot rope, feed my thrill

It’s time to get me off of the grounds

The wicket keeper is down,

The wicked keeper is down

And he gets me off of the grounds
