REM - Auctioneer lyrics

rate me

She didn't want to get pinned down by her prior town

Get me to the train on timehere take this nickel make a dime

Take this penny and make it into a necklace when I leave

What is at the other endI don't know another friend

Another wifeanother morning spent

Listenlisten to the auctioneer

Another engineanother engine

We never wrote the reasons that I need explained

Some things are givensand others get away

This time it's for myself you call it what you may

Okaywe won't say goodbye so longso much more

Listen to the auctioneer

Another engineanother engine

Listen to the bargain holler

Listen to the barter holler

Listen to the auctioneer

Get me to the train on time here take this nickel make a dime

Take this penny and make it into a necklace when I leave

What is at the other endan I don't know another friend

Another wifeanother morning spent

Listen to the auctioneer

Another engineanother engine

Do I stand the bargain holler?

Listen to the barter holler

Listen to the auctioneer
