There's Something Not As Valid When the Scenery Is a Postcard - The Faint

Delivery this morning

Our clothes are hung to dry

We’re visiting the ceiling

On the shore of the Puget Sound

The scenery gets a hold of you

Like a bad record

There’s something not as valid

When the scenery’s a postcard

And the view from through the glass

Is just the glass upon the finish

And the conversations people have

About the lush surroundings

Are all tainted by the cards

They got from travelling companions

Olympia is shorter to the street than what I thought

The view from in the city

Isn’t scenery at all

But it gets a hold of you like a bad record

Like a bad record

There’s something not as valid

When the scenery’s a postcard

And the view from through the glass

Is just the glass upon the finish

And the conversations people have

About the lush surroundings

Are all tainted by the cards

They got from travelling companions
