The Hold Steady - Entitlement Crew lyrics
[The Hold Steady - Entitlement Crew lyrics]
Tequila take off, Tecate landing
Sorry about the centerpiece
Thanks for understanding
Soft salesmen, hard branding
Campari commissions
I was sitting in the kitchen trying to
Guess where she was living now
Hotel room in Houston with the
Shades against the sunshine
Or maybe still in Scranton like it's 1999
When I saw her rolling through
With the Entitlement Crew
I wasn't all that into it but there
Was nothing I could do about it
Now here's a church, here's the steeple
I like the party favors but
I hate the party people
Got distracted by the chorus when
The kids all sang along
Moved to the rogue set
I always really liked that song
You like that song too i know that you do
I saw you mouthing all the words when
You didn't know I was watching you
Everything is brittle and is breaking apart
Your sister's in Seattle and she's
Sleeping with the sharks
I remember we used to play in this park
Thanks for listening
Thanks for understanding
Can't you see how I feel I've been abandoned?
Never got to say goodbye to you
Give my best to the Entitlement Crew
Tecate landing, tequila takeoff
Colfax cookout, Pillsbury bakeoff
Too many cracks in the bathroom
Too many kooks in the kitchen
It would probably be easier if I
Knew where she was living now
I know you probably feel the
Same way as I feel
Like I'm not sure we can pull
Off such an intricate deal
Now all of it's killer but
It's coming up quick
And your brother's in Boston and
He's acting like a dick
I remember back before we knew he was sick
Thanks for listening
Thanks for understanding
Can't you see how I feel I've been abandoned?
Never got to say goodbye to you
Give my best to the Entitlement Crew
Just two systems in the
Dark and people dancing
Thanks for listening
Thanks for understanding
Nodding off to the American Routes
Give my best to the Entitlement Crew
Thanks for listening
Thanks for understanding
Tequila takeoff, Tecate landing
Never got to say goodbye to you
Give my best to the Entitlement Crew
Sorry about the centerpiece
Thanks for understanding
Soft salesmen, hard branding
Campari commissions

Guess where she was living now

Or maybe still in Scranton like it's 1999
