Stupid Things

Yo La Tengo


Every stupid thing that happens to you
Every silly thing I say
Days just fade away
Slide into gray

Every little thing just creeps up on you
A bumpy road
It happens every day
And it takes my breath away

And I say woah
We always wake before we fall
I always know that when we wake up you're mine
Wake up... You're mine

Living with the time that holds us down but
How can that be so
Where does that time go
Before our eyes

Every stupid thing that happens to you
The silly things I say
Not so hard to see
But it seems so out of reach
