lyrics

maybe this time you're right
maybe this time it all works out
since 4:30 that night
it's all you've talked about
they say everybody gets their shot
and you don't want to be left out
take your time
take it off
take a bow
but know
that we all have our doubts


and when you go
hope you find your way
around
the sound
the echo of your beating heart
and we'll all say
carry on
nous attendrons ton retour
you can pretend that you know it all
the world
condensed
a volume on your shelf
but you know
when push comes shove
you'll be on your knees
and crawling back


how lonely it must be
sitting at the top
the city lights beneath you
a temporary stop
on your way to riches, fame
and all the things we're not
conjure all the friends you like
'cause they don't mean a lot
they say everybody gets caught up
in always wanting more
take your time
take it off
take a bow
but know
that we're all keeping score

about

Polite Fiction Seattle, Washington

One dude in California decided he wanted to make music that got you up out of your chair and dancing. This is the result. He writes every single part. It's hard. Cookies are delicious. Pineapples are not.
