Stuck Between Stations [Acoustic Version]
The Hold Steady

There are nights when I think Sal Paradise was right

Boys and girls in America have such a sad time together

Sucking off each other at the demonstrations

Making sure their makeup's straight

Crushing one another with colossal expectations

Dependent, undisciplined, and sleeping late

She was a really cool kisser and she wasn't all that strict of a Christian

She was a damn good dancer but she wasn't all that great of a girlfriend

She likes the warm feeling but she's tired of all the dehydration

Most nights are crystal clear

But tonight it's like it's stuck between stations

On the radio

The devil and John Berryman

Took a walk together

They ended up on Washington

Talking to the river

He said 'I've surrounded myself with doctors

And deep thinkers

But big heads with soft bodies

Make for lousy lovers'

There was that night that we thought John Berryman could fly.

But he didn't

So he died

She said you're pretty good with words

But words won't save your life

And they didn't

So he died

He was drunk and exhausted but he was critically acclaimed and respected

He loved the Golden Gophers but he hated all the drawn out winters

He likes the warm feeling but he's tired of all the dehydration

Most nights were kind of fuzzy

But that last night he had total retention

These Twin Cities kisses

Sound like clicks and hisses

We all tumbled down and

Drowned in the Mississippi River

We drink

And we dry up

And now we crumble into dust

We get wet

And we corrode

And now we're covered up in rust

We drink

And we dry up

And now we crumble into dust

We get wet

And we corrode

And now we're covered up in rust

She was a really cool kisser and she wasn't all that strict of a Christian

She was a damn good dancer but she wasn't all that great of a girlfriend

She likes the warm feeling but she's tired of all the dehydration

Most nights are crystal clear

But tonight it's like it's stuck between stations

These Twin Cities kisses

Sound like clicks and hisses

We all come down and drown
