Here I am in traffic's slow flow
(Where the needle touched down)
Carbon planes draw a cage around the air force base
(where the needle touched down)
My foot on the brake
Its OK to fly low
Over poor spanaway
An eagle swooped down from a semitrailer
Took the name of your town from a sharktooth freighter
The needles the same its recorded and played
As when you left me at the greyhound station the year I moved away
And if I knew then what's so obvious now
You'd still be here baby
My baby
Baby
(Where the needle touched down)
Carbon planes draw a cage around the air force base
(where the needle touched down)
My foot on the brake
Its OK to fly low
Over poor spanaway
An eagle swooped down from a semitrailer
Took the name of your town from a sharktooth freighter
The needles the same its recorded and played
As when you left me at the greyhound station the year I moved away
And if I knew then what's so obvious now
You'd still be here baby
My baby
Baby
that's why I never come back here
That's why they spit out my name
Your ex is a part of the battle
Trying to keep me away
The sledge of tectonic fever
The needle has landed again
Let it play
That's why they spit out my name
Your ex is a part of the battle
Trying to keep me away
The sledge of tectonic fever
The needle has landed again
Let it play
And the needle touched down
The needle has landed
The needle touched down
The needle has landed
The needle has landed
The needle touched down
The needle has landed
The needle touched down from a semitrailer
Took the name of your town from a sharktooth freighter
And if I knew then what's so obvious now
You'd still be here
Took the name of your town from a sharktooth freighter
And if I knew then what's so obvious now
You'd still be here

I tell you one thing, that's a busy needle
At one point it's a drug needle
then it's a needle on a record player
At one point I think it's the needle on a seismograph
'Took the name of your town from a sharktooth trailer'
Odd line, but I like it
Neko's solo stuff is decent with some good songs
But her work with The New Pornographers is brilliant
They have some great tunes
This song is alright, but I'd say the best song about a needle is still ~
