Lyrics Parquet Courts

Parquet Courts

No, No, No!

I don't want to be an essayist

I don't want to be beside your friends

I don't read open letters, long reads or give talks

"No, No, No!"

It's just for them

I don't want to be called a poet

I don't want to be hanged in a museum

I don't want to be cited, tacked onto your cause

"No, No, No!"

I'm just a man

I don't want to be an influence

I don't want you to understand

I don't want to curate, publish no memoir

"No, No, No!"

We're just a band

"No, No, No!"
