Anchor & Bear - On The Deck Tonight

Sounds to me like you are just pretending
To know something that you don't really know
All the charts and lights and wave forms hiding
The fool we see the fool who types too slow
Tell me tell me tell me tell me what is
What is playing on the deck tonight!
With little lights and egg crates on your wall
You can feel the bass and treble shake
But really you could never hear them all
In fact it's over there's no more to fake
Tell me tell me tell me tell me what is
What is playing on the deck tonight!
Now we know how much it really hurts you
How words and music seem to stop you cold
If only you could get your shit together
Start taking notes and doing what you're told
You're writing something on the basement floor
Carol carol carol please don't cry
It's just that darling i can't take no more
The fire burns me and i don't know why
Tell me tell me tell me tell me what is
What is playing on the deck tonight!
Now we know how much it really hurts you
How words and music seem to stop you cold
If only you could get your shit together
Start taking notes and doing what you're told
I never did know what you could hear
Highs and lows it all did play so clear
You left me to wonder just what was wrong
You said how pet sounds really ain't got no songs
And now i know just what a fool you are
Was harry t moss some kind of superstar
As if parlophone just was a bluff
And you said mono's bad yeah thats enough
Remember that time i played you something new
You said it put some kind of spell on you
It was in fact one that you let go
It was just a test, shows how much you don't know
You had a cut off year of 92
What in the world actually happened to you
Did music stop itself from your tin ears
Or was it something with your later years
I really do you wish you nearly all best
And i'd like to thank you for the laughs and rest
Remember it's getting better and i feel fine
May all your records spin until the end of time
