Superchunk – What Can We Do lyrics
What can we do?
What can we do?

Some people go through life
All they see is red lights
We don't wanna live like that
Get tied up, get trapped
You always saw the way ahead
Get your hammer, get your thread
And honey, I've been thinking
Our little island might be sinking
Let's build something new
And I want to ask you
What can we do?

Now everything is different
And everything's the same
Can't find the words to capture
So I guess I can't complain

There's got to be a way to see it
The city, the sea, the light
An angle where it doesn't feel fake
Look pale, feel slight
Can we put the earth back under
Our feet and feel it rumble?
You've got a paper, you've got supplies
You've got wrinkles around your eyes
I want to kiss them when they close
Meet you on the corner every time it snows
I've got wrinkles around my eyes
I'll say I love you, I won't say goodbye
I'll say I love you, I won't say goodbye
I'll say I love you, I won't say goodbye

And every day I want to ask you
But I can't ask you

What can we do?
What can we do?
What can we do?

Was the question you always had, it's true
Now we're putting it back to you

What can we do?
