Pavement - We Are Underused lyrics

Out beyond the call of duty -- Hold your instincts hostage and stick near me Let's drink a toast -- it's the most i can stand to cry about The mental energy you wasted on this wedding invitation Let's thank the host -- you've been such a perfect host The roast was just so perfectly prepared Now i know you care -- now i know you care We are underused We are underused Simply put, i want to grow old -- dying does not meet my expectations Let's drink a toast to all those who arrived alive to tell About their struggles in hushed tones around a fire It's late winter -- let's sink the ship, mix our blood, just the tip A crip is sleeping on the basement stairs Oh, i know he's there -- oh, i know he's there We are underused We are underused, yeah (we are underused.) (we are underused.) (we are underused.) (we are underused.) We are under, under, under, under, underused! (we are underused.) We are under, under, under, under, underused! (we are underused.)
