Dice Behind Your Shades Lyrics - 14 Songs - Paul Westerberg

Dice behind your shades 

Roll the dice behind your shades 

Everybody's trying to make you feel stupid 

And you know they're lyin' 

'Cause their lips are moving 

Bet this one is twice your age 

Come on, roll the dice behind your shades 

Roll the dice behind your shades 

Safer way to be strange 

Roll the dice behind your shades 

The avant-garde unlock the door 

You're takin' notes and nothing more 

A guy snaps your picture on roller blades 

Come on roll the dice behind your shades 

Roll the dice behind your shades 

Safest way to be strange 

Roll the dice behind your shades 

Take it to a higher place 

Where this world ain't in your face 

You and me, Carson McCullers 

Take it to a higher plane 

Take me where the action ain't 

Open windows, open shutters 

Bet this one is twice your age, oh 

The avant-gardes unlock your cage 

And you're sick to death of the latest rage 

Afraid of love it always fades 

Come on, roll the dice behind your shades
