Deer Tick - In Our Time Lyrics






Back in the days
When we used to dance
You chuckle every time that I misstep

Now that we're older
And our hairs get grey
You never cut me slack for my mistakes
You know I never meant to sink to such depths
Why would I jeopardize what we built behind that fence?
Stay with me baby when you can
Its a pain to see but I'm still your man

Back in our time
Before the children
We were all the envy of our friends
Then we were blessed
3 little babies
Whatever broke we built it up again

You know I never meant to sink to the bottom
Why would I jeopardize what I built as a father?
Stay with me on some lost weekend
It's a pain to see but our hearts we can mend

Back in the days
When we used to dance
You'd chuckle every time that I misstep
Now that we're older
And our hairs get grey
You never cut me slack for my mistakes
You know I never meant to sink to such depths
Why would I jeopardize what we built behind that fence?
Stay with me baby when you can
It's a pain to see but you're still my man
It's a pain to see but I'm still your man

    Cool throwback song... wasn't what I was expecting, but I really liked it.  Excellent sound balance on the two guitars, and the whistle at the end sealed the deal.
