Refute Lyrics - Stephen Malkmus

This is a verse about a man who dared 

To fall head over heels for a woman who shared 

Similar interests, similar looks 

Similar taste in similar books 

Lost in the riddle of her Southernish eyes 

Paint-on lips and French knee highs 

The world was telling him love is dead 

But he's turning that logic on its head 

Marry on 

Marry on and you will know 

Marry on

This is a verse about a woman who dared 

To fall head first for her young au pair 

Middle-class values and normalcy 

To her that was so last century 

She wooed her with Ritalin and drugged me high 

Egon Schiele prints and French fries 

The kind of story made for the stage 

The kind of story just jumps of the page 

I tell you 

Marry on 

Marry on and you will know 

Marry on 

Marry on now, children 

But be aware, the world doesn't want you anymore

I know you like to refute all I say 

I know you like to refute all I say 

I know you like to refute 

All that I have shared today
