Dashboard Lyrics By Modest Mouse

    well it would’ve been could’ve been
    worse than you would ever know
    oh the dashboard melted
    but we still have the radio

    oh it should’ve been could’ve been
    worse than you would ever know
    well you told me about nowhere
    well it sounds like someplace i’d like to go

    oh it could’ve been should’ve been
    worse than you would ever know
    well the windshield was broken
    but i love the fresh air you know
    the dashboard melted but we still have the radio

    well it would’ve been could’ve been
    worse than you would ever know oh
    the dashboard melted but we still have the radio
    oh we talked about nothing
    which was more than i wanted you to knowohohohoh
    now here we go

    oh it would’ve been could’ve been
    worse than it had even gone
    well the car was on blocks
    but i was already where i want
    it was impossible we ran it good we ran it good

    why should we ever even ever really even get to know
    it was impossible we ran it good we ran it good
    oh if the world don’t like us
    it’ll shake us just like we were a coohohohold
    now here we go

    well we scheme and we scheme but we always blow it
    we’ve yet to crash but we still might as well enjoy it
    standing at a light switch to each east and west horizon
    every dawn you’re surprising
    and in the evening one’s consoling
    saying see it wasn’t quite as bad as

    well it would’ve been could’ve been
    worse than you would ever know
    i was patiently erasing and recording the wrong episodes
    after you had proved my point wrong
    it wasn’t like i’d let it go ohohoh ohohoh
    i just wanted to catch the last laugh of this show

    yeah it would’ve been could’ve been
    worse than you would ever know
    oh the dashboard melted but we still have the radio
    the dashboard melted but we ran it good we ran it good

    hardwired to conceive so much we’d have to stow it
    even needs have needs tiny giants made of tinier giants
    don’t wear eyelids so i don’t miss the last laugh of this show
    the dashboard melted but we still have the radio

    well we could’ve been should’ve been
    worse than you would ever know
    the dashboard melted but we still have the radio
    well you told me about nowhere
    well it sounds like someplace i’d like to goohohohoh
    now here we go

    well we scheme and we scheme but we always blow it
    we’ve yet to crash but we still might as well tow it
    standing at a light switch to each east and west horizon
    every dawn you’re surprising
    and in the evening one’s consoling
    saying see it wasn’t quite as bad as

    oh it would’ve been could’ve been worse than you would ever know
