Crane
John Darnielle
[Verse 1]
Picked up a fat gold watch for you
Down where the river washes over the avenue
And I listened to it tick away the minutes
Looked out at the awful sky
[Verse 2]
I was afraid that my arm was broken
But it was only kinda run down
I went walking after two last night
Felt like I was the only guy in town
[Chorus]
And I'm not, I know
And I don't need you to tell me so
Look at this watch, look at this watch
You won't believe what this thing can do
