Pink-Slips - Okkervil River[00:00:00]

Three brides before breakfast [00:00:12]

These rails just wrecked us [00:00:15]

My right hand on my heart[00:00:18]

While my left hand snaps your necklace [00:00:19]

Each day gets a little more scary [00:00:24]

We're holding on in a way [00:00:26]

But just barely [00:00:28]

Moms and Dads are rationing their cash[00:00:29]

For the commissary [00:00:32]

But I can't start without going[00:00:35]

All the way - it's a habit someone gave me [00:00:39]

The nursemaid of the blank page [00:00:47]

A canary of the American eclipse [00:00:49]

A profiteer picking up pink slips [00:00:52]

This wish just to go back hey [00:01:08]

When I know wasn't ever ever happy [00:01:10]

Show me my best memory - it's probably super crappy [00:01:13]

Nine years down in Texas with sluts of both sexes [00:01:19]

Liars lumps and drug addicts and drunks;[00:01:25]

I love my friends [00:01:29]

But I can't stop without going all the way a[00:01:30]

Nd I've been that way since '83 [00:01:39]

The midwife of the jetlife [00:01:42]

Oh genie with a golden spliff [00:01:45]

A prostitute paid in pink slips [00:01:48]

I crashed my Cadillac in the valley of mirrors [00:01:57]

When the call came there was nobody here [00:02:00]

When they came from the communists [00:02:03]

I kissed them on the lips [00:02:04]

Then they came for the singers [00:02:06]

In a haze of pink slips [00:02:07]

I guess I was just dreaming and drifting [00:02:26]

I guess I was artificially lifted [00:02:30]

Only happy until the age of ten is still a gift [00:02:32]

But we can't go back to those "227" days [00:02:37]

It's just a dream we all were having [00:02:46]

Hey mariner in the dirt trade Oh [00:02:49]

Postman of the post-apocalypse - from Academy Awards to pink slips [00:02:53]

And I showered my Corvette with Moët for years [00:03:03]

But now I'm standing in the rain[00:03:06]

Drinking the champagne of beers [00:03:07]

They say "Who's that shadow sneaking off behind the pier [00:03:08]

He was rushed and then he was rattled [00:03:12]

But now he's finally in the clear[00:03:13]

To be a refugee from the rat race [00:03:15]

In his white tuxedo and his sad-face [00:03:17]

A music group that your dad plays [00:03:20]

Singing songs about autumn days [00:03:23]

He's the laureate of the Granite State [00:03:26]

And now he doesn't even write [00:03:29]

He just riffs [00:03:30]

And they'll cover up his coffin with pink slips "[00:03:31]
