WILCO lyrics : "Solitaire"
There`s so much we don`t understand
So stick as close as you can
To all of your best laid plans
You`ve got the white clouds hanging so high above you
You`ve got the helicopters dangling angling to shoot
The shots to feed the hungry weekend news crew anchormen
So every evening we can watch from above
Crush the cities like a bug
Fold ourselves into each other`s guts
Turn our faces up to the sun
I won`t take no
I won`t let you go
All by yourself
I know you need my help
When the cold light shakes you like a chandelier
The snowfl akes break through the atmosphere
And melt on the blue breath of the auctioneers and disappear
Once i thought the world was crazy
Everyone was sad and chasing
Happiness and love and
I was the only one above it
Once i thought without a doubt
I had it all fi gured out
Universe with hands unseen
I was cold as gasoline
Took too long to see
I was wrong to believe in me only
Once my life was a game so unfair
It beat me down and kept me there
Unaware of my naysaying
Solitaire was all i was playing
Took too long to see
I was wrong to believe in me only
