my lyricsbox
can you treat it like an oil well
when it's underground out of sight?
and if the sight is just a whore sign
can it make enough sense to me?
pretend the table is a trust knot
we'll put our labels down faith is down
and watch the yards of twine unravel
and you'll never get it back

it's what i want (it's what i want)
it's what i want (twine comes down)
it's what i want (it's what i want)
don't you know
I could make a try

well i've been crowned, the king of it
and it is all we have so wait
to hear my words and
they're diamond sharp
i could open it up and it's up and down

it's what i want (it's what i want)
I see you beg like a little dog (ball and twine)
don't ya know that it's what i want (it's what i want)
I'll see ya beg and
it makes a try, make me try, make me try, make me try
i've been down, the king of it
'Cause all we have I've been down
And I could wait to hear my words and
they're diamond sharp today
This song is from the album "Slanted and Enchanted" and "Quarantine the Past: The Best of Pavement".
