Slow Show (The National)

Standing at the punch table swallowing punch Can't pay attention to the sound of anyone A little more stupid, a little more scared Every minute more unprepared I made a mistake in my life today Everything I love gets lost in drawers I want to start over, I want to be winning Way out of sync from the beginning I wanna hurry home to you Put on a slow, dumb show for you and crack you up So you can put a blue ribbon on my brain God, I'm very, very frightening, I'll overdo it Looking for somewhere to stand and stay I leaned on the wall and the wall leaned away Can I get a minute of not being nervous And not thinking of my dick? My leg is sparkles, my leg is pins I better get my shit together, better gather my shit in You could drive a car through my head in five minutes From one side of it to the other I wanna hurry home to you Put on a slow, dumb show for you and crack you up So you can put a blue ribbon on my brain God I'm very, very frightening, I'll overdo it You know I dreamed about you For 29 years before I saw you You know I dreamed about you I missed you for, for 29 years You know I dreamed about you For 29 years before I saw you You know I dreamed about you I missed you for, for 29 years
