The Hold Steady - The Weekenders lyrics

There was that whole weird thing with the horses I think they know exactly what happened I don't think it needs any explaining I'm pretty sure I wasn't your first choice I think I was the last one remaining I wish we hadn't gone and destroyed it 'Cause I was thinking we could pull another weekender If you've still got a little bit of clairvoyance I remember the metal bar I remember the reservoir You could say our paths had crossed before So if it has to be a secret Then I guess that I can deal with it You and I both know it's a negative thing In the end, only the girls know the whole truth There were a couple pretty cra** propositions There were some bugs in the bars There was a kid camped out by the coat check She said the theme of this party's "The Industrial Age" And you came in dressed like a train wreck I remember the OTB Five second delivery You could say our paths had crossed before So if it has to be a secret Then I guess that I can deal with it God only knows it's not always a positive thing To see a few seconds into the future And if you swear to keep it decent Then yeah, I'll come and see you But it's not gonna be like in romantic comedies In the end, I bet no one learns a lesson So if it has to be a secret Then I guess that I can deal with it You and I both know it's a negative thing In the end, only the girls know the whole truth And if you swear to keep it decent Then yeah, I'll come and see you But it's not gonna be like in romantic comedies In the end, I bet no one learns a lesson In the end, only the girls know the whole truth In the end, I bet no one learns a lesson
