Navy Sheets Lyrics - Stay Positive - The Hold Steady

I guess we met a couple a bona-fide angels 

But they all seemed kinda fat and fatigued 

And now we're trying to match their mouths to the screens 

Match their heads to their dreams 

Everybody's searching out the softest seat 

All dialed up for the funeral feast 

Everyone's stabbing at the biggest piece 

Clever kids kissing on a [unknown] retreat 

Now I'm not really sure we were lovers 

Or if it was just some kind of car crash 

And now we're trying to find a DNA match 

To match their heads to their hats 

Everybody's reaching for the sharpest knife 

Legs wide open on the opening night 

Everybody's bathing in the laser lights 

Clever kids screwing with some [unknown] bites 

Sunday morning, sidewalks flattered 

Feverish in stylish tatters 

Damn, this used to seem like [unknown] 

I remember when it mattered 

Can't get over what's transpired 

Left home virgins, came back vampires 

Built it out like back-scratched choirs 

Really dead or really tired 

Everybody's coming on their navy sheets 

Everybody's coming on their navy sheets 

Everybody wants to suck on something sweet 

Everybody's coming on their navy sheets 

Everybody's coming on their navy sheets 

Everybody's coming on their navy sheets
