Craig Finn - Preludes lyrics

Well the gangsters drove Preludes and sold this one we'd called White Tiger Worth Park had a Betty, the holiday guy couldn't make change The parking lot scene still existed, but not without problems I came back to St. Paul and things had progressed and got strange I got stuck in a snowbank I was too drunk to drive to Edina Right there is proof of my faith that God watches us And the north stars went south And my friends all went out to Seattle I stuck around town, hit the bars Then wait for the bus And the guys at Northeast ride bicycles up to the market Fish take to water But licenses they get revoked And the writing on walls in the stalls in the bathroom says "Cindy's so easy" But I never met Cindy, besides it might be a joke Fish take to water But licenses they get revoked I got stuck in a snowbank I was too drunk to drive to Edina Right there is proof of my faith that God watches us And the north stars went south And my friends all went out to Seattle I stuck around town, hit the bars Then wait for the bus I was down on the trails by the river when this guy jumped out He was waving a pistol I consider my options, decided to do what he says He went through my jacket and found all my packets and matches Lit up a cig and put the kryptonite over my head I was knocked out down in the mud too heavy to float off to Memphis The crust from the camps they pulled me awake with a stick Made coffee over a campfire, I described my attacker They patched up my wounds, showed me a place to get sick They patched up my wounds, showed me a place to get sick I got stuck in a snowbank And God watches us We got into the Preludes And God watches us God watches us
