Black Derby Jacket - Lyrics by Rancid


Lyrics
Books on emerson books on thoreau

But all I read was maps of the road

And I was three thousand miles away from you

All the while I was twenty-two

What do you do to know who you are?

The best way for me to drop out on tour

You went to Upstate Nx
Y (
New York) to go to school

To secure the roll with your parents
I got a new perspective on you

All the good and bad that we went through
I know you better than you know you
'
Cause I got a new perspective on you
I never needed much, I never liked to loom

But a gesture can get me from across the room

The first night we talked until while the sun caught up

Transparent people melting all around us

You left in a plane, I left in a van

Played nightclub house-parties and auditoriums

Saw Germany England Italy with my band
I know you better than your new friends
I got a new perspective on you

All the good and bad that we went through
I know you better than you know you
'
Cause I got a new perspective on you

Ford Econdlane September '93

Driving 10 hours until my eyes are blurry3 packs of Winstons and a bag of seeds

Tapes of "x" and a thermos of coffee6 weeks on and 10 days off

Then I go back on the road for another show

This is all that I've ever done

Girl I got nothing to fall back on
"
But I got a new perspective on you All the good and bad that we went through
I know you better than you know you '
Cause I got a new perspective on you"
