Modest Mouse - Japanese Trees lyrics

Oh yeah, well
I'm not even guessing what your plans may be
Yeah, you're twisted and you're bent
Like you're a Japanese tree
Those are pretty long arms driving
From the back seat
Lay it on heavy like you're sand on a beach
Yeah, you're all ears, how hard could it be?
A cat in the grass, an eaves in the eaves
Walking in my head like I
Am shoes on your feet
You're twisted and you're bent like
You're a Japanese tree

Well, you need a place to go
And I have a place to leave
We'll split the gasoline
And sleep in the back seat
When can we leave? When can we leave?
Why can't we leave? Why can't we leave?
When can we leave?
Oh, you got it figured out
And I'll learn eventually
We'll ditch our phones in
The rest stop bathroom when can we leave?

We have a knack for turning days into weeks
Full of pointless details
Just a crease on your sleeve
You're twisted and you're bent like
You're a Japanese tree
Yeah, you're twisted and you're bent
Like you're a Japanese tree
Pointless details
Just a crease on your sleeves
Yeah, make up some news and then
You believe what you read
Yeah, lay it on heavy like
It's sand on a beach
Yeah, lay it on heavy like
It's sand on a beach, yeah

You need a place to go
And I have a place to leave
We'll split the gasoline
We'll sleep in the back seat
When can we leave? When can we leave?
When can we leave? When can we leave?
When can we leave?
Oh, you've got it figured out
And I'll learn eventually
We ditched our phones in
The rest stop bathroom why can't we leave?
Why can't we leave?

Why can't we leave? Why can't we leave?
Why can't we leave? Why can't we leave?
Why can't we leave?
Well, you need a place to go
And I have a place to leave
So what do we need? What do we need?
What do we need?
We'll sleep in the back seat
And I'll learn eventually
'Cause you've got it figured out
So when can we leave? When can we leave?
We ditched our phones in
The rest stop bathroom when can we leave?
When can we leave?
Well, you need a place to go
But where can it be?
