Lariat Lyrics by Stephen Malkmus & The Jicks

Wig Out at Jagbags

2014

[Verse 1]
Only a chariot could carry it across this void
I wouldn't jerry rig or candy coat your Latin kisses
[Bridge]
You're not what you aren't
You aren't what you're not
You got what you want, you want what you got
People look great when they shave
Don't they?
[Verse 2]
We lived on Tennyson and venison and The Grateful Dead
It was Mudhoney summer, Torch of Mystics, Double bummer
[Bridge]
You're not what you aren't
You aren't what you're not
You got what you want, you want what you got
Feels so great in the shade
[Verse 3]
A love like oxygen, so foxy then so terrific now
On a jape I'm returning
Bobby spinning out
I was so messed up
You were drunk and high
Just a rambling wreck
Coming off the breaks to see what was shaking
[Verse 4]
We grew up listening to the music from the best decade ever
Talking about the A-D-D's
We grew up listening to the music from the best decade ever
