Something in the Way

from Culture & Consequence by Francis Friday

about

Yet another song of me trying to sound like Guided By Voices. Yeah, I do this a lot. But I think this is the best of that lot. I can hear Robert Pollard singing it now.

lyrics

Happiness can save my life, it's different today
In all my years I've paid the price, it's happening in this way
It's just the way you look that makes me want to write the book
About the words that fill my head today

Something in the way you walk is making me OK
With consequences overlooked, the wiser years will say
It's just the things I fear that make me want to disappear
And never walk the streets of fire away

Little lonely fiver steer is chasing all the golden deer
Like angels falling from the sky, I wonder if I'll ever try
To hold you in this open minded way

Something in the way you breathe just makes me understand
As children join the latest scene, their happiness be damned
I wish you loved me too, the way I used to pamper you
And lead me down the avenue today
It's something in the way it seemed, that happened in a future dream
A golden child is being born today
