Squeaky Fingers Lyrics & Tabs by Ted Leo and the Pharmacists
Squeaky Fingers
guitar chords lyrics
Like it's a dream -- and there's a moon, and a tune --
a shower in a motel room,
and through the steam, and in my ear,
I can hear
squeaky fingers on the mirror.
Beyond the door, out in the lot,
the night is hot,
and kids are givin' what they got;
and is it me or is it fey,
when I say,
"It reminds me of another day?"
Ya-hey!
Out in the road, across the town,
out and down,
where they disappear without a sound,
Out in the road, across the town,
out and down,
where they disappear without a sound,
into the whole from whence they came,
without a name,
givin' and gettin' joy and pain;
and into pants, then into boots,
and business suits,
to fill them out while they commute;
or to remain in tricked out cars,
and country bars,
county fairs, and church bazaars --
Stay hard!
Like it's a dream -- in motion slow,
and they all know
I hear them come and watch them go;
and as the steam begins to clear, I face the mirror --
the evidence has disappeared
into the hole from whence it came,
still unnamed, like tomorrow's town is just the same;
into the whole from whence I came,
still unnamed, like tomorrow's town is just the same --
unnamed.
