Car Seat Headrest - Ryan North by Northwest lyrics

He knew what everyone was looking for
He found a market and capitalized upon it
He'd always look me straight in the
Eyes when he was talking
He'd give the world a more
Presentable version of himself

He spoke in terms of what we
Wanted rather than what he wanted
(He presented his argument in
A convincing manner)
He presented his arguments in
A convincing way
(And he always had a smile on
His face that was ever)
Whenever he spoke the room fell silent
Not as if they were scared of him
(Condescending, but always cheerful
As if he was just so happy to see you)
But as if they were really scared i want to
I want to

Parking lot at one point, um
You've been traveling different cities a
While and what's the first
Thing that ever happened to you in your life
(Oh god) had been destroyed
He's a rookie, um, in a computer
Part company in Dennis Port, massachusetts
And he had all of these cars, like
You know, and even more importantly
And he had a deadline coming up with a
Baby budget, a degreaser, and uh and, um
He bought acres of
My fuckin’ land, he'd been working
There all day long, i've got the
He's like, come back tomorrow, go
To the parking lot, and get your dirty car
There's one vehicle in there, these 32
Cars he gets in the car, backs out of
His seat, parks it, headed back at it
And headed in the first uh, it was-
Fuck uh, it was this '67-something car he
Said the vehicle was, you know
Wasn't decent it was built (Right)
No, he doesn't even try it
And it was really weird

Dare I say, an honest man (I want to)
Dare I say, an honest man (I want to)
Dare I say, an honest man (I want to)
Dare I say, an honest man (I want to)

Dare I say, an honest man
Dare I say, an honest man
Dare I say, an honest man (I want to)
Dare I say, an honest man (I want to)

Dare I say, an honest man (I want to)
Dare I say, an honest man (I want to)
Dare I say, an honest man (I want to)
Dare I say, an honest man (I want to)
