D Bm
Tangled in the midst of all the trust
the way you pissed inside
Bm E
the brain file technology drives.
E -Riff 1-
Show me your [dots?] now.
D
Who was it that said the world
was mainly all divorces and spare change?
G E
Lets lethalize our sling-shots and swallow propane.
D C G
You are the liiiight. The calm in the day.
D C G
You are the liiiight. The calm in the day.
D Bm
Spend your year abroad I ripped the pea out of the pod.
Bm E
In store for three months of exile in Spain.
E -Riff 1-
Where was the danger?
D
Watch out for the gypsy children in electric dresses
they're insane.
G
I here they live in crematoriums
E
and smoke your remains.
D C G
You are the liiiight. The calm in the day.
D C G
You are the liiiight. The calm in the day.

| Why do people keep passing around these incorrect lyrics? I have no idea what that last verse is but anywhere you look on the Internet, all you will find is this one transcription of the lyrics. | |

| This is the eeriest love song ever--probably my favorite Pavement song. I've listened to Terror Twilight a billion times and I think I'll always claim it as my favorite album of all time--"Watch out for for the gypsy children in electric dresses they're insane, I hear they live in creamatoriums and smoke your remains, you are the li hi hi hi ihgt, the calm in the day! YEAH (guitar solo) | |

| aaaahhhh "I hear they live in crematoriums and smoke your remains" how tight is that? I think this is just a song about a significant other who is his shining prize. In the craziness of life, she is the "calm in the day" | |
