What a silly expression
The news just got real for the new progressives
We wait out the situation
It seems like a thing, you wore a hubcap as a halo

A father grows forgetful
The mother lies in the light of the cable news feed
(I remember all the days)
In the course of your conversation
You make an effort to fight off the sniffles

Can’t hear the base
I can’t hear the base

(there you are the day before)
I’m not playing, I’m not playing
I’m not playing with you
We’re not playing, we’re not playing
We’re not playing with you

(better than alone)
I lost you somewhere at the airport
You can find me at the Happy Clam
There you are, your way, your oooh

We’re not playing, we’re not playing
We’re not playing with you

Seems like they used to be much larger
Than they are right now

We’re not playing
Yeah yeah yeah

In the summer we opened up the windows
The smell of Sweet Sue and pot smoke was no joke

in another didn’t know if you wanted to be
you get a view from inside, if you wanted it to be

We had a view thru the fir trees

oh so unhappy together
you’re not singing enough
you’re not playing,
stressed out by the lunacy

You’re not playing, you’re not playing
You’re not playing with me
I’m not playing, I’m not playing
I’m not playing

I can’t hear the base

I’m not playing
I’m not your player
Impossibility
I can’t hear the base
I’m not playing, I’m not playing
Dude I’m not your playa’
(how do you remember)

I lost you at the airport
Here we are, can’t hear the bass
I can’t hear the bass
I can’t hear the bass
