Lyrics:

Pavement - Shady Lane

Blind date with the chancer
We had oysters and dry lancers
When the check arrived we went dutch, dutch, dutch, dutch
A redder shade of neck on a whiter shade of trash
And this emory board is giving me a rash
Im flat out
Youre so beautiful to look at when you cry
Freeze, dont move
Youve been chosen as an extra in the movie adaptation
Of the sequel to your life.

A shady lane -- everybody wants one
A shady lane -- everybody needs one
Oh my god, oh my god, oh my god, oh my god
Oh my god, oh your god, oh his god, over god
Its everybodys god, its everybodys god, its everybodys god, its
Everybodys god
The worlds collide, but all that we want is a shady lane

Glance, dont stare
Soon youre being told to recognize your heirs
No, not me -- Im an island of such great complexity
Stress surrounds in the muddy peaceful center of this town
Tell me off in the hotel lobby right in front of all the bellboys and the
Over-friendly concierge

A shady lane -- everybody wants one
A shady lane -- everybody needs one
Oh my god, oh my god, oh my god, oh my god
Oh my god, oh your god, oh his god, oh her god
Its everybodys god, its everybodys god, its everybodys god, its
Everybodys god
The worlds collide, but all that I want is a shady lane.
