Texas Never Whispers
Stephen Malkmus
Here we go .. she's on a hidden tableau
Just a two for one .. And a two for one is right
Down my alley sight .. I'm just a wasted ... beehive
Don't you know its an easy thing when it's lost
Does it show when the ends are frayed and it's tossed out
Lined with silver thread .. I 've seen your wasted ... beehive
She's so lackadaisical. .. should've been a west coast bride
Backseat on electric glide .. pilots flying drive by fades
Don't hold your breath too long .. this tunnel is a Texas mile
Cavities and yellow eyes .. bleach a daisy second prize
Cherry pickin' vagrants ... my da' was locked I guess I'd feel fine
The way the river bends .. the one who's bendin' over me
la da da da da da ...
(Texas, Texas, Texas, Texas, ...)
