Slow Show Lyrics - Boxer - The National

Standing at the punch table swallowing punch 

Can't pay attention to the sound of anyone 

A little more stupid, a little more scared 

Every minute more unprepared 

I made a mistake in my life today 

Everything I love gets lost in drawers 

I want to start over, I want to be winning 

Way out of sync from the beginning 

I wanna hurry home to you 

Put on a slow, dumb show for you and crack you up 

So you can put a blue ribbon on my brain 

God I'm very, very frightening, I'll overdo it

Looking for somewhere to stand and stay 

I leaned on the wall and the wall leaned away 

Can I get a minute of not being nervous 

And not thinking of my dick 

My leg is sparkles, my leg is pins 

I better get my shit together, better gather my shit in 

You could drive a car through my head in five minutes 

From one side of it to the other 

I wanna hurry home to you 

Put on a slow, dumb show for you and crack you up 

So you can put a blue ribbon on my brain 

God I'm very, very frightening, I'll overdo it 

You know I dreamed about you 

For 29 years before I saw you 

You know I dreamed about you 

I missed you for, for 29 years
