Pavement
Westie Can Drum
[Verse 1]
Three o' three, the seconds they are sequins
And the minute string, raveled 'round the mannequin
Of formless space, a party line at last that we can
All embrace – and segue to the burning masses!

[Chorus]
Ten to eleven, don't question, just get in
I think that we are losing a way
Westie… You cannot drum!

[Verse 2]
Half past noon, visualize a centaur baying
At the moon, his profile is a silver circle
Brings to mind the portraits on the coinages and
Lincoln's beard, and why's he got a horse's body?

[Chorus 2]
(Griffin, a cruiser)
You'll love her, you'll lose her
I think that we are losing our way
Westie... You cannot drum!

[Verse 3]
Five-nineteen deluded like a Dixie-Crat
I don't ya
Clog latrine, and clean it like a Dixie-Crat
And deck the halls with spirulina
[Chorus 3]
Dry route to Devon
So great, like Heaven
I think that we are losing a way
Westie... You cannot drum!
No, Westie... You cannot drum!
