Superchunk - What Can We Do lyrics

What can we do? What can we do? Some people go through life All they see is red lights We don't wanna live like that Get tied up, get trapped You always saw the way ahead Get your hammer, get your thread And honey, I've been thinking Our little island might be sinking Let's build something new And I want to ask you What can we do? Now everything is different And everything's the same Can't find the words to capture So I guess I can't complain There's got to be a way to see it The city, the sea, the light An angle where it doesn't feel fake Look pale, feel slight Can we put the earth back under Our feet and feel it rumble? You've got a paper, you've got supplies You've got wrinkles around your eyes I want to kiss them when they close Meet you on the corner every time it snows I've got wrinkles around my eyes I'll say I love you, I won't say goodbye I'll say I love you, I won't say goodbye I'll say I love you, I won't say goodbye And every day I want to ask you But I can't ask you What can we do? What can we do? What can we do? Was the question you always had, it's true Now we're putting it back to you What can we do?
