Range Life - Pavement

After the glow, the scene, the stage

The sad talk becomes slow but there’s one thing I’ll never forget

Hey, you gotta pay your dues before you pay the rent

Over the turnstiles and out in the traffic

There’s ways of living, it’s the way I’m living, right or wrong

It’s all that I can do and I wouldn’t want to let you be

I want a range life if I could settle down

If I could settle down then I would settle down

I want a range life if I could settle down

If I could settle down then I would settle down

Run from the pigs, the fuzz, the cops, the heat

Pass me your gloves, this crime it is never complete

Until you snort it up or shoot it down, you’re never going to feel free

Out on my skateboard the night is just humming

And the gum smacks are the pulse I’ll follow if my walkman fades

Well, I got absolutely no one, no one but myself to blame

Don’t worry, we’re in no hurry, school’s out, what did you expect?

I want a range life if I could settle down

If I could settle down then I would settle down

I want a range life if I could settle down

If I could settle down then I would settle down, yeah

Out on tour with the Smashing Pumpkins

Nature kids, I, they don’t have no function

I don’t understand what they mean and I could really give a fuck

Stone Temple Pilots, they’re elegant bachelors

They’re foxy to me, are they foxy to you?

I will agree they deserve absolutely nothing, nothing more than me

Dreaming, dream, dream, dream, dream
