LIZ PHAIR - Go West lyrics

The interstate

New York

Is three thousand miles away

And I'm not looking forward to following through

But it's better than always running back into you

I've closed my eyes and my bank account and gone west, young man

Take off

The parking brake

Go coasting

Into a different state

And I'm not looking forward to missing you

But I must have something better to do

I've got to tear my life apart and go west, young man

And it feels like I've got something to prove,

But in some ways it's just something to do

My friend's turn me around and say "You go west, young man"

Stepping

Down off my platform shoes

Sixty

Nine in the afternoon

And I'm waiting for someone in the know

Like Pirnir tells me on the radio

Says take it from someone who's been there before

You go west, young man

And I'm looking for somebody to do

My thinking for me till I come through

The state-line highway sign says you have gone west, young man

And it feels like I've got something to prove

But in some ways it's just something to do

The state-line highway sign says you have gone west, young man
