We're the fugitives of american portions Caught on the sleeves of yesterday's conquered From the fresh cut grass out on the interstate Where the wheels keep on rolling 'Til we've sealed our fate Tinsel and sawdust, who's gonna give you up So here's a guitar that you use to strum You never got very far but you could still sing along The oblique pastiche of childhood memories Has got you down on your knees You know you can't escape these things Tinsel and sawdust, who's gonna give you up It's not who you are it's just what you've become Skies fold into roads, we've been gone for days Feeling more at home when I'm this far away Flip the cassette of the mixed tape you made Light up a joint, let our souls catch some rays Tinsel and sawdust, I'm gonna give you up It's not who you are, it's just what we've become
