Solid Silk - Stephen Malkmus & The Jicks

Make up an innocent, average girl

Kissing under prairie moon, no one knows

She’s so amazing

Love and poverty, wealth and hate

How you gonna beat it out if you don’t know?

You don’t have to forget

Pile into Jackie, he’s up for it

He’ll never see the butter-side of his daily bread

Colored lucky fiscal plague, information, dust

Piled over everyone

Everyone of us

It’s a violation

Numbskull chip off of some old block

Dagger glances for the kid, he’s running off

It’s so contagious

He’ll step on you if you talk too true

Rubber bullets for the clown

It’s slug-eat-slug

It’s annihilation

Scratched out a doggerel verse or two

To set you back on your way, back to you

In a minute

Cynical pinnacles, we swung too high

Flaccid as a wedding cake, but tight makes right

With a kiss goodnight
