Pavement Lyrics

"Old To Begin" lyrics



Embrace the senile genius
Watch him reinvent the wheel
I don't need your summary acts, summary acts to give into the narrative
age

Old to begin -- I will set you back, set you back, set you
Old to begin -- I will set you back, set you back, set you

We get to feeling like a fixture
Set in 1966 -- time came that we drifted apart
Drifted apart to find an identical twin

Old to begin -- I will set you back, set you back, set you
Old to begin -- I will set you back, set you back, fella

Searching for latent cause -- blame it on menopause
Or perhaps stress and strain -- credit cards, lumbar/numb the pain
But I've seen your double dares everything extraordinaire
I know the things you do are gonna come back
