Boring Enormous Songtext

von Paul Westerberg

Coffee laughs at us every morning
We always laugh at the choices we've made
And ask ourselves, "How did it get so early?"
We're boring enormous
Will they inform us
That up close we still look afraid
Boring enormous
It isn't for us to say

No longer in a hurry to get anywhere
Still don't care for your destination
No longer lead, you just let things happen
Boring enormous
Will you inform us
Just when are where you might run?
Boring enormous
It ain't for everyone

Here with my headaches and cigars
My love for you is finally scarred
Moving vans and swollen hands leave their mark
I pledge allegiance to the sky
Of the only place I lie
Anymore

Faucet's been dripping for a year and a half
Both of us tripping outside to play
One thing I love I can no longer stand
Boring enormous
Please just ignore us
'Cause up close we're still far away
Boring enormous
Please just ignore us
'Cause up close we look far away
Boring enormous
It isn't for us to say
