Misfits and Mistakes

Lyrics

[Meatwad Intro] I want a swing beat here It needs to move, it needs to move so the crowd can dance You understand what I'm saying? Ready and one, two, and three One, two and three Okay, that's not exactly what I said there but we can work with that This is Meatwad and um backing me are the Superchunks This is a song of theirs But I want to show you a different side of Meatwad An edgy side, a cynical side I don't know about rainbows or french birds that dance over the horizon Although that is a big part of me [Verse 1] All these open spaces Well they give me no cover now I stand out here, reflecting all your fears off my odd surfaces And those friendly faces Well they just, disappear somehow Behind the glass, the dirty window curtains and shades coming down Well these bright clear skies Well they they give me no peace of mind I'm out here cooking all alone in the sun Put me away I'm done anyhow And those funny faces Yeah they're all crumbling down It's something like shying away from any shapes that you don't recognize But you were never delicate Paper clips and paper cuts Rusty plates from out of state And further away than that Say you will say you will Gather like leaves in the gutter Say you will say you will Put all the random pieces together But you were never delicate Paper clips and paper cuts Rusty plates Plastic six-pack rings 'round the wrists of the worst of us Say you will, say you will Gather like leaves in the gutter Say you will, say you will Put all the random pieces together Say you will say you will For all the misfits, mistakes, and the others Say you will, say you will Fall down together like lines in your letters Put all the random pieces together Put all the random pieces together now Put all the random pieces together (In a scrapbook) Put all the random pieces together [spoken] That sounds like a good gift, scrapbook Or a collage, put on a wall Alright are we done? One more cotton pickin' time One, two, three, four Come on y'all, do it
