"Lake Song"
[00:12.16] Down by the lake
[00:15.16] We were overturning pebbles
[00:17.86] And upending all the animals alight
[00:22.05] .
[00:27.35] And I took a drag
[00:30.56] From your cigarette and pinched it
[00:33.19] 'Tween my finger and my thumb
[00:35.69] Till it died
[00:41.08] And the sun burned low
[00:48.84] On the radio
[00:53.01] .
[00:56.18] Say that you will
[00:59.39] Say you will or will you won't
[01:01.53] Or you whatever you prevaricate
[01:04.44] Your whole life, don't you?
[01:08.09] .
[01:11.17] This much I can say
[01:14.70] I would've waited till the oceans
[01:16.92] Fell away and all the sunken cities
[01:19.42] Would reveal themselves to you
[01:23.33] .
[01:24.79] But you won't, will you?
[01:32.19] Because you never do
[01:37.76] And the sun burned through
[01:45.18] Sweet as honeydew
[01:48.53] .
[01:50.51] And I
[01:53.72] Seventeen and terminally fey
[01:58.67] I wrote it down and threw it all away
[02:04.05] Never gave a thought to what I paid
[02:10.91] And you
[02:13.79] All sibylline, reclining in your pew
[02:18.78] You tattered me, you tethered me to you
[02:24.00] The things you would and things you wouldn't do
[02:28.89] To tell the truth I never had a clue
[02:34.28] .
[03:13.70] Now we arise
[03:16.94] To curse those young suburban villains
[03:19.48] And their ill-begotten children from the lawn
[03:25.40] .
[03:29.26] Come to me now
[03:32.39] And on this station wagon window
[03:34.77] Set the ghost of your two footprints
[03:37.25] That they might haunt me when you're gone
[03:42.67] And when the light broke dawn
[03:50.04] You were forever gone
[03:53.39] .
[03:55.40] But I remember you
[04:00.27] You were full
[04:04.50] You were full and sweet as honeydew
[04:08.99] .
[04:10.98] And I
[04:14.00] Seventeen and terminally fey
[04:19.00] I wrote it down and threw it all away
[04:24.14] And never gave a thought to what I paid
[04:31.17] And you, all sibylline, reclining in your pew
[04:39.05] You tattered me, you tethered me to you
[04:44.30] The things you would and things you wouldn't do
[04:49.32] You noticed how I never had a clue
[04:55.97] Never had a clue
[05:00.66] You were full and sweet as honeydew
[05:05.75] You were full and sweet as honeydew
[05:10.56] .
