Текст песни Death Cab for Cutie - No Joy in Mudville

last night i dreamt that i was you.

and it′s on...
buying drinks for the poets upstate, this

would bridge ′66 (again?)
trust fund hipsters were casing the room
chock full of amphetamines. the
overturned kick drum book set the pace
with incomparable cool.
and if the tempo was lousy it was lost
on all but you...
