lyrics

I knew right then I was asking for the moon
She said, “I don't have the moon...I only have the sun
Something’s got a hold on me that I can’t explain"
So I left her to be and I learned how to run

But it’s ok to be someone other than me
She’s a will-o’-the-wisp in a little black mini
She’s a ready or not get, set, and go…
I know it’s true cuz Jeff Tweedy told me so
 
So I went down to the Madison Co-Op Grocery
Thinking I could buy myself some sake or some socks
But I gave all my money to a front door bluesman
And the walking blues echoed down the blocks

But it’s ok to be someone other than me
The world paints like Renoir in the 19th Century
It’s a ready or not get set, and go…
And I know it’s true cuz Jeff Tweedy told me so
 
Woke up in the spacecraft because I drank caffeine
I wasn’t that concerned because the movie was on
I broke a nail when I broke the speed of sound
Turned over then to see her wearing only chiffon

But it’s ok to be someone other than me
I’m a space man here floating in my tin can
Ready or not get set, and let’s go
And I know it’s true cuz Jeff Tweedy told me so
