"Old To Begin (Silent Father)" lyrics - PAVEMENT

Embrace the senile genius
Watch him reinvent the wheel
I don't need your summary acts, summary acts
To give into the narrative age

Old to begin
I will set you back, set you back, set you
Old to begin
I will set you back, set you back, set you

We got to feeling like a fixture
Set in 1966
Time came that we drifted apart, drifted apart
To find an identical twin

Old to begin
I will set you back, set you back, set you
Old to begin
I will set you back, set you back, set you

Searching for latent cause, blame it on menopause
Or perhaps stress and strain, credit cards, lumbar pain
But I've seen your double dares, everything extraordinaire
I know the things you do are gonna come back
