Pavement - Range Life [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Verse 1]

After the glow, the scene, the stage, the set
Talk becomes slow, but there's one thing I'll never forget
Hey, you gotta pay your dues before you pay the rent

Over the turnstiles and out in the traffic
There's ways of living; It's the way I'm living
Right or wrong, it's all that I can do and I wouldn't wanna let you be

[Chorus] x2

I want a range life
If I could settle down
If I could settle down
Then I would settle down

[Verse 2]

Run from the pigs, the fuzz, the cops, the heat
Pass me your gloves, this crime, it is never complete
Until you snort it up and shoot it down, you're never gonna feel free

Out on my skateboard, the night is just humming
And the gums smacks are the pulse I'll follow if my Walkman fades
But I've got absolutely no one, no one but myself to blame

[Pre-Chorus]

But don't worry, we're in no hurry
School's out, what did you expect?

[Chorus] x2

[Verse 3]

Out on tour with the Smashing Pumpkins
Nature kids, I, they don't have no function
I don't understand what they mean and I could really give a fuck

The Stone Temple Pilots, they're elegant bachelors
They're foxy to me, are they foxy to you?
I will agree there isn't absolutely nothing, nothing more than me

[Outro]

Dreamin', dream dream dream dream dream
