Missed The Boat - Modest Mouse[00:00:00]

While we're on the subject[00:00:42]

Could we change the subject now [00:00:44]

I was knocking on your ears[00:00:46]

Don't worry you were always out[00:00:47]

Looking towards the future[00:00:51]

We were begging for the past[00:00:53]

Well we knew we had the good things[00:00:55]

But those never seemed to last[00:00:57]

Oh please just last[00:00:59]

Everyone's unhappy[00:01:09]

Everyone's ashamed[00:01:12]

Well we all just got caught looking[00:01:14]

At somebody else's page[00:01:16]

Well nothing ever went[00:01:19]

Quite exactly as we planned[00:01:21]

Our ideas held no water[00:01:23]

But we used them like a damn[00:01:25]

Oh and we carried it all so well[00:01:30]

As if we got a new position[00:01:35]

Oh and I laugh all the way to hell[00:01:38]

Saying yes this is a fine promotion[00:01:44]

Oh and I laugh all the way to hell[00:01:47]

Of course everyone goes crazy[00:01:54]

Over such and such and such[00:01:57]

We made ourselves a pillar[00:02:00]

We just used it as a crutch[00:02:02]

We were suddenly uncertain[00:02:04]

At least I'm pretty sure I am[00:02:06]

Well we didn't need the water[00:02:09]

But we just built that go god damn[00:02:11]

Oh and I know this all myself[00:02:14]

I stood in front for all the people[00:02:21]

Oh and I know this all myself[00:02:24]

We listen while life hangs on[00:02:30]

And the sound of life's sweet bliss[00:02:35]

Was it ever worth it [00:03:00]

Was there all that much to gain [00:03:02]

Well we knew we missed the boat[00:03:05]

And we'd already missed the plane[00:03:07]

We didn't read the invite[00:03:10]

We just dance at our wake[00:03:11]

All our favorites were playing[00:03:14]

So we could shake shake shake shake shake[00:03:16]

Tiny curtains open[00:03:19]

And we heard the tiny clap of little hands[00:03:21]

A tiny man would tell a little joke[00:03:23]

And get a tiny laugh from all the folks[00:03:26]

Sitting drifting around in bubbles[00:03:28]

And thinking it was us that carried them[00:03:29]

When we finally got it figured out[00:03:32]

That we had truly missed the boat[00:03:34]

Oh and we carried it all so well[00:03:38]

As if we got a new position[00:03:44]

Oh and we owned all the tools ourselves[00:03:46]

But not the skills to make a shelf with[00:03:53]

Oh what useless tools ourselves[00:03:56]

END[00:04:01]
