MOUNTIES / PRETTY RESPECTABLE

Can't use the current vernacular
Good times, I can't handle it
Really coulda learned a thing or two
About what adults do
It's pretty spectacular
Coulda been pretty respectable
Tied it up and highly electable
One day standing in a queue
To get an IOU
For dead-end collectables
Whoa, oh

Coulda been pretty respectable
Coulda been pretty respectable
Oh, oh

Death's seeking wings, look at what she brings
Pocket knife telepathy, eyes on moving things
All around the room but the center's always you
Your soul is locked in gesture but your eyes are always true
You might think it detestable, my favorite waves are festival
Why is it so quiet when my heart is like a circle?

Just when you think it doesn't mean a thing
You see the clouds are clearing
(Hands have got to type)
Just when you think it doesn't mean a thing
You see the clouds are clearing
(Hands have got to type)
Just when you think it doesn't mean a thing
You see the clouds are clearing
(Hands have got to type)

Coulda been pretty respectable
Coulda been pretty respectable
Coulda been pretty respectable
Coulda been pretty respectable

In town, you're falling, moving
Looking through binoculars
Backward
Well, I've been the preacher
With the accent
Speaking easy
We earned the right to make
A racket (racket, racket, racket)

Coulda been pretty respectable
Coulda been pretty respectable
Coulda been pretty respectable
(Tied it up and highly electable)
Coulda been pretty respectable
(Tied it up and highly electable)
Coulda been pretty respectable
