In The Mouth Of A Desert Lyrics - Slanted & Enchanted - Pavement

Can you treat it like an oil well 

When it's underground, out of sight? 

And if the sight is just a whore sign 

Can it make enough sense to me? 

Pretend the table is a trust knot 

We'll put our labels down, faith is down 

I'll watch the yards of twine unravel 

And you'll never get it back 

It's what I want 

(It's what I want) 

It's what I want 

(Twine comes down) 

It's what I want 

(It's what I want) 

Don't you know? 

I could make it dry, make it dry 

Make it dry, make it dry 

I've been crowned, the king of it 

And it is all we have so wait 

To hear my words and they're diamond sharp 

I could open it up if it's up and down 

It's what I want 

(It's what I want) 

I see a bag like a little bar 

(Fallen twine) 

Don't you know that it's what I want? 

(It's what I want) 

I'll see your bag 

And it makes me try, make me try 

Make me try, make me try 

I've been down, the king of it 

Is all we have, I've been down 

If I could wait to hear those words 

They're diamond sharp today
