The Best Room

Let loose with your charms Go reckless, unharmed We all signed the card "Get well, but don't you try too hard" The lessons unlearned Oh, this meeting is adjourned Oh, these Western concerns Hold my place in line while I get your turn To the empty balconies we serenade All the playgrounds where them kids don't get to play Dirty parkies went and chased them all away To the game consoles to fatten The best room they have Is the last room you want The bathroom's outside Police tape is tied To the doorknobs of rooms Nine through thirty-two These Western concerns We beg while we chew These Western concerns are all I ever really learned to be concerned with But don't you, don't you know it's hard Feeling tired every time that you try? Ain't it hard feeling tired all the time? The family living upstairs must have a fleet of rider lawn mowers While the novelist to my right's convinced that every woman's a whore But he bothers me time and again To set him up with my very best friends and I say, "What?" Says he doesn't restate but he will not shut up! Well don't you, don't you know it's hard Feeling tired every time that you try? Ain't it hard feeling tired all the time? Don't you, don't you know I ain't goin' to bed Ring my head in the woods right now Scan for some mycelium And bring a little back to town Well don't you, don't you know it's hard (I ain't goin' to bed) Feeling tired every time that you try? (Ring my head in the woods right now) Ain't it hard feeling tired all the time? (Scan for some mycelium and bring a little back to town) Go reckless, unharmed Yep, the shut-ins, they're well armed Well, we all led the charge 'Til we ran aground in our party barge Every little gift was just one more part of their grift Oh, yeah, we know it Oh, yeah, we know it The best news that we got Was some dumb hokum we'd all bought Oh, though reckless, feeling great We're the s*xiest of all primates Let's let loose with our charms Shake our ass and wave our arms All going apeshit --- The Best Room - Modest Mouse
