Novocain Stain - Modest Mouse

When I can work out how it was

Then I’ll tell you

TV stained my memories, yeah

I don’t fit the shoes

Remember through sounds

Remember through smells

Remember through colors

Remember through towns

With fear and fascination

On what was here and what’s replacing them now

Interchanges, plazas and malls

And crowded chain restaurants

More housing developments go up

Named after the things they replace

So welcome to Minnow Brook

And welcome to Shady Space

Well it all seems a little abrupt

No, I don’t like this change of pace
