Parquet Courts - Memphis Blues Again lyrics

[Verse 1] Functionalism’s a bore Modernism’s a chore God how school makes me snore Why do people adore Steel tubes bent to a frame All this sh** looks the same Like abuse is a shame Yeah he’s mostly to blame [?] [?] Critics said to much glare Peter Shy didn’t care Minimalism’s absurd To me its just a word I wished i’d never heard Dont you know there’s a third After function and form Makes you feel nice and warm Makes you question the norm Keeps you safe from the swarm Yes emotion makes three It makes objects complete Go ahead take a seat [?] Why should it not have thoughts Why should it not have lots Will you tell me why not? Are you artists or cops? [Chorus] We’re stuck inside This old automobile We’re stuck inside With the memphis blues again [Verse 2] ? is my name Furniture is my game Thinking frees been my claim Since 1917 Cemetery is the past I prefer the contrast Critics said that it clashed Time will tell who outlasts Picture this on your wall Its not meant to appal Yeah that chairs got a ball Its about eight feet tall No need to be a grouch Have a seat on my couch Makes it easy to slouch With the arms pointing out This lamp looks like a bird Yeah its kind of absurd No you haven’t misheard This lamp looks like a bird Dont confuse what i meant No malicious intent I’m just trying to invent [?] On my typing machine Discover valentine Comes in blue, red and green Thank you [?] king Why should it not have stripes There’s a few different types Up and down side to side Must it be made of pipes [Chorus] We’re stuck inside This old automobile We’re stuck inside With the memphis blues again X2
