Yo La Tengo - False Alarm lyrics

Oh, no, I think I'm falling for a false alarm
Like an all day sucker stuck until
You crunch the right arm
Well if I open my eyes
If I just pay attention to McNew
Well, I just held back back back
To listen to your cues so, it's not enough
I never meant to hold you down
Waiting for the firestorm
Waiting for the false alarm

Well, is it really true? Well, I
Know, I mean I guess, why not?
Well is it really true? I don't know
Too hard to figure out
I'm gonna mark my words, cross my eyes
And stomp my feet 'Cause, I don't want you
Feeling bad, feeling bad
Feeling worse than you do
Well, I'll stand my ground
Hide behind a fake smile
Think I'll talk about something else
Just for a little while

Aw, said it once, said it twice, said it
You can tell it's the same old tune
Straight down to the bitter end
Tell me when there's more to go there soon
It's gonna hold my tongue in place
Think about what to do
If you don't see nothing wrong this time
Well I'm taking it out on you
