lirik lagu modest mouse – paper thin walls (live 2004)
[audience cheering]
[chorus]
these walls are paper thin
and everyone hears every little sound
everyone’s a voyeur
as they’re watching me watch them watch me right now
they’re shaking hands, they’re shaking in their shoes
oh lord, don’t shake me down
everyone wants two of them
and half of everyone else who’s around
it’s been agreed the whole world stinks
so no one’s taking showers anymore
[verse 1]
laugh hard, it’s a long ways to the bank
i can’t be blamed for nothing anymore
it’s been a long time since you’ve been around
laugh hard, it’s long ways to the bank
[verse 2]
tow the line to tax the time, you know
that you don’t owe
i can’t be a fool for everyone
that i don’t know
[chorus]
these walls are paper thin
and everyone hears every little sound
everyone’s a voyeur
as they’re watching me watch them watch me right now
they’re shaking hands, they’re shaking in their shoes
oh lord, don’t shake me down
everyone wants two of them
and half of everyone else who’s around
mmm, no one’s taking showers anymore
[refrain]
laugh hard it’s long ways to the bank
[outro]
tow the line to tax the time, you know
that you don’t owe
i can’t be a fool for everyone
that i don’t know
[audience applause]
[freebird rant]
audience member #1: freebird!
ib: i know i’ve said this before, but the odds of us actually playing “freebird”? there are no odds. it’s not gonna happen. i’ll start with a first reason. we have no idea how to play “freebird.” the second reason is, in the love bug’s national- natural uh habitat, that would just f-ckin’ k!ll him, and you wouldn’t want that now. he is adorable. he is cute. thirdly, even if- even if- well, pick your deity, whoever- came down from the heavens or wherever the hills- wherever the deity lives and sh-t themselves, and blessed us with the vast knowledge of “freebird.” we can play it backwards, we can sing backwards, we can do all that crazy sh-t. we still just wouldn’t do it
[audience members clapping]
audience member 2: f-ck seth!
audience member 3: destiny’s child!
ib: if this were the make a wish foundation and you were gonna die in 20 minutes, right as soon as y’know like- just long enough to play “freebird,” we still wouldn’t play it
[audience cheers]
ib: and here is the end reason. the end reason is because life is too f-ckin’ short to play “freebird.”
[audience cheers]
