Evan Thomas Weiss - Washington, DC lyrics

[Verse 1] Slumped down, buried in a couch Using old familiar methods to account for the evening Safe for now and everyone's still spinning I'll tell the tale that actually what happened [Chorus] With a knife pulled on the back into the middle of a fan A loose cannon of a man With a knife poked in the back turn in the middle of a man Who saw my face and ran [Verse 2] We could all sleep soundly We'll travel, look the streets in the evening At the thought of first impressions Though they can be deceiving So I don't hope I brag about people changing [Chorus] With a knife pulled on the back into the middle of a fan A loose cannon of a man With a knife poked in the back turn in the middle of a man Saw my face and ran [Bridge] A drunken friend The only alibi you'll need Against my mouth And the well thought-out obscenities We will stand your ground If you don't really know how ‘Cause we flagged you down You got out Shined your lights and left Flagged down Got out Shined your lights and left We will stand your ground If you don't really know how ‘Cause we flagged you down And you got out Got back in and drove away [Outro] We will stand your ground If you don't really know how We will stand your ground If you don't really know how We will stand your ground If you don't really know how
