PAVEMENT - Embassy Row lyrics

rate me

Old intuition -- on your dock we're fishin'

Come on nowgive us a grade

A for effortand a b for delivery

C for devotion when the world starts encroaching on your plans

Where is the savoirwhere is the savoir -- he's not here right now

Where is the savoirwhere is the savoir-faire?

Embassy row -- the fumes they lay low

On lanes that are wide -- where the limousines glide

On the wrought-iron gates and the bone china plates

And don't forget your manners where the anthems play

In a netherworld of foreign feeds

In a netherworld of foreign feeds

In a netherworld of foreign feeds

I'm gonna take the crownI'm gonna take the crown

I'm gonna take the crownI'm gonna take a crown

Maidsthey are frisked -- and asses are kissed

I needed a visa -- I bought off a geezer

Political favors could make you a savior

In an open corner where the news is late

In a netherworld of foreign feeds

In a netherworld of foreign feeds

In a netherworld of foreign feeds

I'm gonna take the crownI'm gonna take the crown

I'm gonna take a crownI'm gonna take a crown

I need to get bornI need to get dead

I'm sick of the formsI'm sick of being misread

By men in dashikis and their lefist weeklies

Colonized wrath -- their shining new path

The converted castle of moorish design

If you want to stay the weekendwellwe wouldn't mind

The plots they are hatchingthe surface is scratching

In an open corner where the news is late

In a netherland of foreign beads

In a netherland of foreign beads

In a netherland of foreign beads

I'm gonna take you downI'm gonna take the crown

I'm gonna take the crownI'm gonna take the crown

I'm gonna take the crownI'm gonna take the crown

I'm gonna take the crownI'm gonna take the crown
