The Hold Steady

The Hold Steady - Two Handed Handshake lyrics

Your rating:


His two handed handshake says he's so glad to meet you

His one silver earring says he parties on weekends

He turns through the channels when he's watching the TV

He recites lines from movies when he's trying to be funny



Guys, it's like we're not even trying



She danced with that one guy, she must know we're watching

It seems like less people than were here just last weekend

She's still pretty pissed about her ex's new trick

There were stares and glares and names



Girls, you know you're not really helping



I don't think that you'll find love

In some bathroom at some club

I know some kids who didn't come back



We had First Ave on Fridays, we're pirates at port

We go in and we get high two at a time, we get drunk on the sports

We're falling into bed with our television sets

We're watching movies that we've already seen



Guys, it's like we're not even trying



You dress like contestants at some desperate pageant

You fall asleep in your makeup, you wake up with a blemish

You're making up your mind about the drinks after work

It's such a gossipy office



Girls, you're gonna find someone



You don't have to rush it

You're too young to force your crushes

You don't have to rush it

You're too young to fake your crushes



Guys, I'm pretty sure that we can put it back together

And girls, you gotta try to be nice to one another

Guys, I'm pretty sure that we can put it back together

And girls, you gotta try to be nice to one another



I don't think we'll get the truth

From kids with stickers on their boots

I know some kids who didn't come back

From the plywood painted black



We gotta try a little harder

We gotta be a little better

We gotta pull it back together
