Here Lyrics

written by S. Malkmus/S. Kannberg of Pavement; the lyrics of the tindersticks version differ slightly 
 
I was dressed for success 
But success it never comes 
And I'm the only one who laughs 
At your jokes when they are so bad 
And your jokes are always bad 
But they're not as bad as this 

 
Chorus: 

Come join us in a prayer 

We'll be waiting, waiting where 

Everything's ending here 

And all the sterile striking it 
Defends an empty dock you cast away 
And rain upon your forehead 
Where the mist's for hire 
If it's just too clear 
Let's spend our last 
1/4 stance randomly 
Go down to the outlet once again  
Painted portrait of minions and slaves 
Crotch mavens and one night plays 
Are they the only ones who laugh 
At the jokes when they are so bad? 
And the jokes are always bad 
But they're not as bad as this 

 
Chorus  
 
And all the Spanish candles unsold 
Have gone away to this 
And a "run-on piece of mount on" 
Trembles, shivers runs down the freeway 
I guess she spent her last quarter randomly 
I guess a guess is the best I'll do
