letra de cotton (jordan lake sessions volume 2) - the mountain goats

this song is for the rats
who hurled themselves in to the ocean
when they saw that the explosives in the cargo hold
were just about to blow

this song is for the soil
that’s toxic clear down to the bedrock
where no thing of consequence can grow
drop your seeds there
let them go

let them all go
let ’em all go

this song is for the people
who tell their families that they’re sorry
for things they can’t and won’t feel sorry for

and once there was a desk
and now it’s in a storage locker somewhere
and this song is for the stick pins and the cottons
i left in the top drawer

let ’em all go
let ’em all go
i wanna sing one for the cars
that are right now headed silent down the highway
and it’s dark and there is n0body driving
and something has got to give

i saw you standing by the roadside
you didn’t know that i was watching
now you know
let it all go

you can let it all go
let it all go

mr. john wurster on the drums just knockin’ me over
is that the “50 ways” beat? yes, thank you very much
i’m not gonna sing “50 ways to leave you lover”
’cause that would be weird
one, i don’t know it so i’d run out of steam very quickly and start trying to make stuff up
paul simon worked hard on those lyrics and probably my ad-lib version would not…
well, you’d slip out the back, jack
yeah, yeah, make a new key, lee, get a new key, make a new key?
i don’t quite understand that, if he’s leaving, why does he need a key?
to his new place
yeah, but he doesn’t need to make a new key for that one
well, get it, he’s getting a new key made for his new place
well, no, you just get, they give you the keys, you don’t have to make anything
well, he’s making a duplicate (lee), he needs a spare (we need to address this with you)
maybe he’s a key loser
welcome to parsing paul simon lyrics with the mountain goats
this week we’ll be addressing the fifty ways to leave your lover
uh, and i don’t think you list anywhere near fifty while we’re at it paul, honestly
uh, this is the story of the pigs that ran straightaway into the water and their great triumph
