Pavement - embassy row

작사는 정치와 외교 속에서 개인의 노력을 평가받는 상황을 이야기하며, 그 과정에서 생긴 갈등을 드러낸다
"좋은 평가, 나쁜 평가, 헌신의 부족" 등 다양한 주제가 얽히며, 주인공은 권력을 움켜잡을 의지를 다진다
여러 사회적 상징들을 통해 인간관계와 외부 세계의 복잡함을 탐구한다

Old intuition on your dock we're fishin'
Come on now, give us a grade
A for effort and a B for delivery
C for devotion when the world starts encroaching on your plans
Where is the savoir? Where is the savoir?
He's not here right now
Where is the savoir? Where is the savoir-faire?
Embassy row, the fumes, they lay low
On lanes that are wide where the limousines glide
On the wrought-iron gates and the bone china plates
And don't forget your manners where the anthems play
In a netherworld of foreign feeds
In a netherworld of foreign feeds
In a netherworld of foreign feeds
I'm gonna take the crown, I'm gonna take the crown
I'm gonna take the crown, I'm gonna take a crown
Maids, they are frisked and asses are kissed
I needed a visa I bought off a geezer
Political favors could make you a savior
In an open corner where the news is late
