Courtney Barnett - Rae Street lyrics

[Verse 1] In the morning, I'm slow I drag a chair over to the window And I watch what's going on The garbage truck tiptoes along the road Light a candle for the sufferin' Send my best wishes with the wind All our candles, hopes and prayers Though well-meanin', they don't mean a thing Unless we see some change I might change my sheets today [Chorus] Well, time is money And money is no man's friend And all eyes on the pavement I'm not gonna touch ya Don't worry so much about it [Verse 2] The day begins to shine The parent teaches the child how to ride The bike wobbles side to side Two dogs entangle, everybody smiles The pair across the street One's up the ladder and one's on their knees Painting the faded brick What's the point? It looks fine from up here [Chorus] Well, time is money And money is no man's friend And all eyes on the pavement I'm not gonna touch ya Don't worry so much about it I'm just waiting for the day to become night [Verse 3] Next door, the kids run amok The mother screams, "Don't you ever shut up?" And there's one thing I know The sun will rise today and tomorrow We got a long, long way to go [Chorus] Well, time is money And money is no man's friend And all eyes on the pavement I'm not gonna touch ya Don't worry so much about it I'm just waiting for the day to become night [Outro] And I'll shine those shoes And mow those lawns Let's get back to normal Lay it all on the table You seem so stable But you're just hangin' on Let go that expectation Change the station And find out what you want
