Modest Mouse - Black Cadillac Lyrics
And it's true we named our childrenafter towns that we've never been to.And it's true that the clouds just hung aroundlike black Cadillacs outside a funeral.And we were done, done, donewith all the *****, *****, *****in' around.You were so true to yourself.You were true to no one else.Well I should put you in the ground.I've got the time, I got the hours,I got the days, I got the weeks.I could say to myselfI've got the words but I can't speak.Well I was done, done, donewith all the circ, circ, circlin' round.I didn't die and I ain't complainin'.I ain't blamin' you.I didn't know that the words you said to memeant more to me than they ever could you?I didn't lie and I ain't sayin'I told the whole truth.I didn't know that this game we were playin'even had a set of rules.We named our children after townsthat we've never been to.And it's true that the clouds just hunger aroundlike black Cadillacs outside a funeral.And we were laughing at the starswhile our feet clung tight to the ground.So pleased with ourselvesfor using so many verbs and nouns.But we were all still just dumb, dumb, dumberthan the dirt, dirt, dirt on the ground.Well wings on flames, kings with no names,well this place just ain't got right air right now.You were so all over town but still so Crayola brown.Well you should run 'round yourself right now.And we were done, done, donewith all the *****, *****, *****in' around.Circlin' round.
