Backstairs - The New Pornographers
Before I knew
to choose the music of celebrity
I sang backups on the backstairs
the backstairs the backstairs
I wore out grooves sneaking
around the servants' quarters so
So I knew my way around the backstairs
There is another west you'll find out
It's nearly thunderous
There is another west much wilder
We feel it under us
And yet another west
a new one when you arrive
I moved so slow I didn't know
that I was backing out
It was getting packed out on the backstairs
the backstairs the backstairs
And I came and I saw
and I ran and I won
And I came and I saw
and I ran and I won
And I came and I saw
and I ran and I won
There is another west
you'll find out
It's nearly thunderous
There is another west much wilder
You feel it under us
And yet another west
a new one when you arrive
And yet another west
a new one when you arrive
packed out on the backstairs
packed out on the backstairs
packed out on the backstairs
packed out on the backstairs
And I came, and I saw,
and I ran, and I won
packed out on the backstairs
packed out on the backstairs
packed out on the backstairs
packed out on the backstairs
And I came, and I saw,
and I ran, and I won
packed out on the backstairs
packed out on the backstairs
packed out on the backstairs
packed out on the backstairs
packed out on the backstairs
packed out on the backstairs
packed out on the backstairs
packed out on the backstairs
packed out on the backstairs
packed out on the backstairs
packed out on the backstairs
packed out on the backstairs
packed out on the backstairs
packed out on the backstairs
packed out on the backstairs
packed out on the backstairs
packed out on the backstairs
packed out on the backstairs
