Greg Brown - Small Dark Movie lyrics

How are things going in the small dark movie of your life Late at night you call your girlfriend in the morning you call your wife In the morning you go for coffee leave town by the underpa** Leave whatever happened last night cigarette in a champagne gla** The road used to go someplace you never been before Now it's just a race track and the only prize is more The only off-ramp is up ahead and just where ain't too clear And change is a semi with smoking wheels filling the rear view mirror You could really use a rain coat and a pair of cool shoes You could really use some idea of what you're gonna do But the road keeps coming at you and you find no place to rest And in these small dark movies no-one knows what's best So how are things going in the small dark movie of your life Late at night you call your girlfriend in the morning you call your wife In the morning you go for coffee leave town by the underpa** Leave whatever happened last night cigarette in the champagne gla** How are things going How are things going How are things going
