Pavement We Are Underused

Tekst piosenki

[Verse 1]
Out beyond the call of duty
Hold your instincts hostage and stick near me
Let’s drink a toast
It’s the most I can stand to cry
About the mental energy you wasted on this wedding invitation
Let’s thank the host
You’ve been such a great host
The roast was just so perfectly prepared

[Chorus A]
Now I know you care
Now I know you care
We are underused
We are underused

[Verse 2]
Simply put, I want to grow old
Dying does not meet my expectations
Let’s drink a toast to all those who arrived alive
To tell about their struggles in hushed tones around a fire
It’s late winter
Let’s sink the ship
Mix our blood, just the tip
A crip is sleeping on the basement stairs

[Chorus B]
Oh, I know he’s there
Oh, I know he’s there
We are underused
We are underused, yeah

[Chorus/Outro – Background Vocals]
We are underused
We are underused
We are underused
We are underused

[Chorus/Outro – Malkmus]
We are under, under, under, under, underused!
We are under, under, under, under, underused!
