Stuck Between Stations
The Hold Steady

There are nights when I think that Sal Paradise was right
Boys and girls in America they have such a sad time together

Sucking off each other at the demonstrations
Making sure their makeup's straight
Crushing one another with colossal expectations
Dependent, undisciplined and sleeping late

She was a really cool kisser
And she wasn't all that strict of a Christian
She was a damn good dancer
But she wasn't all that great of a girlfriend

She likes the warm feeling
But she's tired of all the dehydration
Most nights are crystal clear
But tonight it's like it's stuck between stations on the radio

The devil and John Berryman, they took a walk together
And they ended up on Washington talking to the river
He said, ‽I've surrounded myself with doctors and deep thinkers
But big heads with soft bodies make for lousy lovers”

There was that night that we thought that John Berryman could fly
But he didn't so he died
She said, ‽You're pretty good with words but words won't save your life”
And they didn't so he died

And he was drunk and exhausted
But he was critically acclaimed and respected
He loved the Golden Gophers
But he hated all the drawn out winters

He likes the warm feeling
But he's tired of all the dehydration
And most nights were kind of fuzzy
But that last night he had total retention

Well, these Twin Cities kisses, they sound like clicks and hisses
We all come down and drown in the Mississippi river

We drink and we dry up
And now we crumble into dust
We get wet, we corrode
And now we're covered up in rust

We drink and we dry up
And now we crumble into dust
We get wet, we corrode
And now we're covered up in rust

She was a really cool kisser
And she wasn't all that strict of a Christian
She was a damn good dancer
But she wasn't all that great of a girlfriend

He likes the warm feeling
But he's tired of all the dehydration
Most nights are crystal clear
But tonight it's like it's stuck between stations

Well, these Twin Cities kisses, they sound like clicks and hisses
We all come down and drown
