Lyrics Conor Oberst

Conor Oberst

Till St. Dymphna Kicks Us Out

Rise and shine, get out of bed

Get ready for the day

Get a coffee from the deli

And walk the riverbank

Be careful with your headphones on

When you cross the FDR

Don't want to be a casualty

Before you make it to the bar

And hide your shakes and worried face

Just sit down in the back

Your friends got there ahead of you

And night is falling fast

Oh, you know you shouldn't say it

So you're thinking it out loud

Some things we lost are never to be found

But if you're gonna talk like that

At least buy another round

And we can keep drinking till St. Dymphna kicks us out

This world is made of blinking lights

They're changing all the time

But depending who you're talking to

It's likely to be fine

I watched you go from bad to worse

The blues is here to stay

Sometimes it's the simple things that make it all okay

Oh, you don't have to lie, say you're alright

We're just happy that you're here

But if you yell and tell me to go to hell

Well at least you'd sound sincere

Oh, you know it's all a spectacle

When you go to take a bow

You always did get nervous in a crowd

But if you need some company

I'd gladly stick around

And we can keep drinking till St. Dymphna kicks us out

Let's get enabled

Great minds, they think alike

I never was a good judge of when to call it a night

Oh, you don't have to say it

So you're thinking it out loud

Some things go south and they never turn around

But if you want a confidant

I'd never let you down

Oh, we can keep drinking till St. Dymphna kicks us out

Yeah, we can keep drinking till St. Dymphna kicks us out
