Lyrics Yo La Tengo

Yo La Tengo

A Shy Dog

Sitting at home inside yourself

Thinking it's cool to be so reserved

And it's kinda funny

Lying in bed that night, wasting time, wasting time

and I know how that is, want to know how that is

How do these days go by, why does time move so slow

When are my decisions made

Make a new plan that you're gonna be strong

Eat a bit of lunch and the moment's gone,

But not quite forgotten.

When you alone at night, reflecting time, reflecting time.

And I know where that leads, want to know where that leads.

How do these days go by, why does time move so slow

When are my decisions made

When that day comes, you're sure you're gonna know

You're like some shy dog looking for the nerve,

looking for the nerve to bite.

Start to react, too smart to miss

You're coming just til you resent

It's turning into a problem

Lying awake at night, just wasting time, wasting time

And I know where that leads, do you want to know where that leads.

How do these days go by, why does time move so slow

How do these days go by, why does time move so slow

When are my decisions made, I'll never know, I'll wonder.
