lirik lagu conduit for sale! – pavement
[chorus 2x]
i’m tryin’, i’m tryin’
i’m tryin’, i’m tryin’
i’m tryin’, i’m tryin’
i’m tryin’ and i’ll try
[verse 1]
imagine if you will, a herr proctor, alias and n-bleman
son of son of sky, and of scion
part of his rich inheritance parceled and generous divorce
sentence forthwith being:
certain blocks of land and living quarters
deemed by all gentlemen and wives thereof
to be “grossly humane and frankly, quite undirty”
[chorus 2x]
[verse 2]
herr proctor, in his enviable good taste
tries quick escape gambit via local periodicals
but no takers who land an enviable station
in the conduit between two cells
a veritable no-man’s-land, array of the flophouse
cardboard materials and carbon-monoxide wallpaper
all his brig-deck torino boys ask… is irrelevant!
[chorus 2x]
[verse 3]
(no one’s gonna save me, no one’s gonna make me rearrange)
unable to bear the scandal, ray, philanthropist
rents low-down scab house in conduit
herr proctor offers said land for a song
but no one wants to sing
(no one’s gonna save me, no one’s gonna make me rearrange)
in an attempt to retain social privileges, yet mask it as goodwill
he says to the conduit members
“take this rotten old tree and make it bear fruit.”
cheers erupted throughout the thin settlement
an italian male was heard to say
“between here and there is better than either here or there!”
[chorus 2x]
[outro]
i’m tryin’, i’m tryin’
i’m tryin’, i’m tryin’
i’m tryin’, i’m tryin’
i’m tryin’, i’m tryin’, i’m tryin’
