Up the Punks
Polite Sleeper
This is really just a fast song
Slowed down and played to how we feel
And if we slow it down even more
We're gonna show our age and then some
And then there are the pictures we keep
On the fridge next to our dry cleaning receipts
Ignored until company asks
Where was this taken, and when
You look so different
But really not so different
Woke up late, just rode around
Took the instinct to Oakland Downtown
Spent some time at your new place
We got some pills and a six pack of something cheap
Walked around the lake talking
About that kid from Texas who moved up here
And this is the last thing I remember before passing out
Later that night on the floor of the ACME bar
I feel so different
We're really not so different
It's fall now
In my burrough
Things change
We'll keep our mind sharp
We'll keep our friends close
We'll in touch
With just about
Everyone that we've ever loved
I keep pounding these notes
Into a solid story whole
Well into the night
From Berlin to the last night I see tonight
This is really just the first song
