Pavement - Trigger Cut lyrics

Lies and betrayals

Fruit-covered nails

Electricity and lust won't break the door

I've got a heavy coat- it's filled with rocks and sand

And if I lose it I'll be comin' back today

(I've got a message for you)

I'll be comin' back today

(I keep it in my hand)

You know I'm comin' back one day

(I've got a sister or two)

And I'll be comin' back today

Ex-magicianstill knows the tricks

Tricks are everything to me

Until it's free- I've got a trigger cut

And I can't pull it back

But if I learn how I'll be coming back today

(I've got a message for you)

I'll be coming back today

(I keep it in my hand)

You just look at me and say

(I've got a sister or two)

You know I wish you went away

I learned the truth

The truth of the words

Truth I made for you

Because it's just as good

And if I spit it out

Before I chew the ring

I'll rearrange it

'til it looks just right today

(I've got a message for you)

And I'll be comin' back back my way

(I keep it in my hand)

You will look at me and say

(I've got a sister or two)

You just wish I went away
