With their fractured songs, unexpected blasts of feedback, laconic vocals, cryptic literate lyrics, and defiant low-fidelity, Pavement were one of the most influential and distinctive bands to emerge from the American underground in the '90s. Pavement, along with Sebadoh, were the leaders of the lo-fi movement that dominated U.S. indie rock in the early '90s. Initially conceived as a studio project between guitarists/vocalists Stephen Malkmusand Scott Kannberg in the '80s, Pavement gradually became a band during the early '90s. Along the way, their initial EPs and debut album, 1992's Slanted & Enchanted, earned a devoted following of musicians, indie fans, and critics.

Major Leagues Lyrics

Pavement

Lip on, on watery clay,
Relationships hey hey hey
You kiss like a rock
But you know I need it anyway
Angle for the ringside seats
When they fall
Don't blame me
Bring on the Major Leagues
Bring on the Major Leagues
Bring on the Major Leagues
Bring on the Major Leagues
How you gonna teach him to walk
When he can't even finish the
He can't even finish the songs of the law
Are they civilized or satanist?
Cater to my walls and see if they fall
Don't leave me
Bring on the Major Leagues
Bring on the Major Leagues
Bring on the Major Leagues
Bring on the Major Leagues
They wear you down sometimes
Kids like wine,
Magic christians chew the rind
Cause bad girls are always bad girls
Let's let'em in
Darling we're up against it
And there is no time for
Tie-ins tie-ins tie-ins go!
Bring on the Major Leagues
Bring on the Major Leagues
Bring on the Major Leagues
Bring on the Major Leagues
They'll wear you down sometime
Kiss the wine,
Magic christians chew the rind
Cause bad girls are always bad girls
Let'em in
