Spoon is one of those bands that's toed the lined between commercial success and indie credibility for a long time. The opening groove on the original song when the song switches from 3/4 to 4/4 is so infectious. We kinda do away with that and make the song a little raunchier as it goes along while still trying to honor the rock roots of the tune. Enjoy.
lyrics
When I Was Still Growing Up
And Dad Head Off To Work
He Put Coat And Tie On
Over Fitted Shirt
Nothing Else Will Fit Right
Or Seems So Directly Applied
Than Fitted Shirt Hung On Me
Fitted Shirt Alright
I Long For The Days
They Used To Say
Ma'am And Yes Sir
For Now I'm Going To Find
Buttons For My
Dad's Old Used Shirt
Fitted Shirt
Fitted Shirt
Been Looking So Long Now
And No One's Seen And No One Heard
But When I Go Out Tonight
I'm Going To Put On A Fitted Shirt
One Day It'll Take
And They'll Start To Make
Shirts That Fit Right
Til Then I Suppose
I Still Got Dad's Clothes
And That's Alright
Fitted Shirt
Fitted Shirt
