Shady Lane Lyrics


Pavement Shady Lane

Blind date with a chancer, we had oysters and dry lancers
And the check when it arrived, we went dutch dutch dutch
Dutch a redder shade of neck on a whiter shade of trash
And this emory board is giving me a rash
I'm flat out
You're so beautiful to look at when you cry
Freeze don't move
You've been chosen as an extra in the movie adaptation
Of the sequel to your life
A shady lane
Everybody wants one
A shady lane
Everybody needs one
Oh my God oh my God oh my God oh my God
Oh my God oh his God oh her God oh your God
It's everybody's God, it's everybody's God
It's everybody's God, it's everybody's God
The worlds collide
And all that I want is a shady lane
Glance don't stare
Soon you're being told to recognize your heirs
No not me
I'm an island of such great complexity
Distress surrounds
The muddy peaceful centre of this town
Tell me off
In the hotel lobby right in front of all the bellboys
And the overfriendly concierge
A shady lane
Everybody wants one
A shady lane
Everybody needs one
Oh my God oh my God oh my God oh my God
Oh my God oh his God oh her God oh your God
It's everybody's God, it's everybody's God
It's everybody's God, it's everybody's God
The worlds collide
But all that I want is a shady lane
