"In A Stage Whisper" lyrics - SUPERCHUNK

Don't you sometimes feel
Someone cares
More than you
For the particulars of your own life?

Who held still?
And who walked into the knife?

Did you notice the face
She was wearing
When she stepped into the light?

Everyone wants their own piece of the pain
A lock of hair
Take out your clippers

Tell it in a stage whisper

Sometimes you wonder
How many sneaking fools
Have your number

Is it safe to move in?
Everyone is watching

You're a poster girl or boy
For a long, hot summer

Inches give way to lies
Paint a target on your chest
To make it easy
For the hunters

Everyone enjoys a piece of the pain
A lock of hair
Pull out your clippers

Tell it in a stage whisper

Everyone enjoys a piece of the pain
A lock of hair
Take out your clippers

Tell it in a stage whisper
