The New Pornographers - You Tell Me Where

Take a breather, they came for Caesar
But I don't think he's here, Desiderata
Is that your name now? Glad you came out

You've proved your poison is more than noise
And the joy's addictive although restrictive
Fair baby beware, I'm not always square

We're old friends from the last call
Searching a glass for
Some famous last words
Learned from the master

With all your shit-talking, all your blue stocking
Have to spellcheck, you want some hell? Check
Direct your own pace, you need your own place

So you tell me where to be, I'll be there
A little seasick, I feel you falling
Napkins crawled in me, I'm all in

We're old friends from the last call
Searching a glass for
Some famous last words
Learned from the master

You see my range, you could change me if you wanted to
Just rearrange a few pieces and run
If there's no way but the high road, save me
If there's an easy street leave me, don't leave me

I think I could change you, become what you want me
To think we could finally be done
I think I could change you, become what you want me
To think we could finally be done

So you tell me where to be, I'll be there
You tell me where to be, I'll be there
You tell me where to be, I'll be there

So you tell me where to be, I'll be there
You tell me where to be, I'll be there
You tell me where to be, I'll be there

You tell me where to be, I'll be there
You tell me where to be, I'll be there
You tell me where to be, I'll be there

You tell me where to be, I'll be there
You tell me where to be, I'll be there
You tell me where to be, I'll be there

You tell me where to be, I'll be there
You tell me where to be, I'll be there
You tell me where to be, I'll be there
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah
