Pavement

Pavement was an American indie rock band that formed in Stockton, California in 1989. The group mainly consisted of Stephen Malkmus (vocals and guitar), Scott Kannberg (guitar and vocals), Mark Ibold (bass), Steve West (drums) and Bob Nastanovich (percussion and vocals). Initially conceived as a recording project, the band at first avoided press or live performances, while attracting considerable underground attention with their early releases. Gradually evolving into a more polished band, Pavement recorded five full length albums and nine EPs over the course of their decade-long career, though they disbanded with some acrimony in 1999 as the members moved on to other projects. In 2010, they undertook a well-received reunion tour. more »

Chinese spectate riding forklift,
Mother says "no"
Can't I for...forklift me?
Why? 
Because I need money, work,
Time is my life, not hers
What does it mean?
Of course work sucks 
Spend week in Nevada
Dancing with old lady full of nickels,
Full of nickels and dimes
Makes me tired, 
Lose my..self
Lose my cash
I get really fucked 
And then really drunk...
(Something about playing cards 
And being from Iowa
And the dealer had 21)
Nothing left back home with his forklift
Driving past boss Creamer, age 24
Delta Pi, PHD
Mr. Creamer, tired of words,
Looked at me,"life is a forklift"
Now my mouth is a forklift
This I ask: that you serve as a forklift too.
Christmas, Christmas
