Barnett, Courtney - Pedestrian At Best Lyrics
I love you, I hate you,
I'm on the fence
It all depends
Whether I'm up, I'm down,
I'm on the mend, transcending all reality
What are we gonna do
When everything all falls through?
I must confess,
I've made a mess
Of what should be a small success,
But I digress,
At least I've tried my very best, I guess
This, that, the other
Why even bother?
But I'll still be in your head
Put me on a pedestal and I'll only disappoint
You tell me I'm exceptional and I promise to exploit you
Give me all your money and I'll make some origami, honey
I think you're a joke but I don't find you very funny
My internal monologue
Is saturated analogue
It's scratched and drifting,
I've become attached to the idea,
It's all a shifting dream bittersweet philosophy
I've got no idea how I even got here
I'm resentful,
I'm having an existential time crisis
What bliss!
Daylight savings won't fix this mess.
Under-worked and over-sexed
I must express my disinterest.
The rats are back inside my head
What would Freud've said?
Put me on a pedestal and I'll only disappoint
You tell me I'm exceptional and I promise to exploit you
Give me all your money and I'll make some origami, honey
I think you're a joke but I don't find you very funny
I want to wash out my head with turpentine cyanide;
I dislike this internal diatribe
When I try to catch your eye
I hate seeing you crying in the kitchen
I don't know why it affects me like this
When you're not even mine to consider
Erroneous,
Harmonious,
I'm hardly sanctimonious,
Dirty clothes
I suppose
We all outgrow ourselves
I'm a fake,
I'm a phony,
I'm awake,
I'm alone,
I'm homely,
I'm a Scorpio
Put me on a pedestal and I'll only disappoint
You tell me I'm exceptional and I promise to exploit you
Give me all your money and I'll make some origami, honey
I think you're a joke but I don't find you very funny
Put me on a pedestal and I'll only disappoint
You tell me I'm exceptional and I promise to exploit you
Give me all your money and I'll make some origami, honey
I think you're a joke but I don't find you very funny

John Lennon has re-emerged in the body of Courtney Barnett
Holy shit this is awesome
I love her vocal style.
Who is still disturbed in 2020?

Courtney Barnett, found through Bojack Horseman and somehow, now you´re in Grand Turismo Sport :D
Based on this and some of her other videos she's actually also a great actress.
How refreshing! love it.
What way does the merry go round spin in America clockwise or anti clockwise
Here after hearing this on Dare Me ^_^

Such a great song, with a crappy video...
Came here from ‘Dare Me’
oh my gosh how have I only just found this exceptional girl.
i know shes gay . . but i still like to be stuck in the outback with her and see if she would change her mind
Oh! You don't find me very funny? Guess I'll leave my witticisms to the kerb. You crazy lovable witty bird.
Why don't you like clowns? Aren't we fuckin' funny? Don't we make you laugh?
It's not often to see a song title that references Top Chef.
How in the motherf**k did it take me 5 years to find this???
Lyrics are pretty damn tight!
At least she can juggle the English language. Damn!
This could be my theme song.
This gal needs a Kalashnikov, then they will respect her.
Gran Turismo Sport brought me here
Don't you hate it when you like a song but that song is also associated with negative memories in your mind
Is this the only time Courtney wore a make up?
So fucking sexy in that makeup. Never felt attraction to a clown before.
Gran turismo sport)))
British people sound American when singing but definitely not Australians
@Bernard Mcalister American music > Australian music
You ain’t heard many english artists then mate
amo sia il video che la canzone
Cheers from NO PLACE TO PISS,,,, or the PiSs
This is fucking terrible
Wish I could be hip Australian like Barnett
"The rats are back inside my head" is that a 1984 reference?
me when i try to be funny online
A great indie rock song
30 seconds in, and I'm already in love with this.
She must of been influenced by Mark Everett of the Eels. She is darn good!
This makes me sad.I want to give her a hug and tell her how great she is!
This song is fucking terrible
Courtney Barnett is my favorite Courtney Love
I'm still here.
Villains ❤
dear Big Thief: you are not Beck. but one day if you stick to it we may both be something
This is fucking evil and I love it and relate so much. Shut the fuck up, world. One day you're all gonna cry cause I don't pay attention to you
This is fucking evil and I love it and relate so much. Shut the fuck up, world. One day you're all gonna cry cause I don't pay attention to you
I heard this on a local radio station and nearly crashed driving b.c i was laughing so hard
🎼🎵🎶🎹🎼🎵🎶🎹👍
This is why good clowns go bad.
Very nice
I'm a Scorpio 😖
"I think you're a joke but I don't find you very funny" Damn!
Dare Me brought me here🖤
“Who’s here from”
sounds a bit like female the chats
The Joker
This is GOLD.
dammit it may be the drugs but this makes me cry
Wow. This just got recommended to me now but I remember getting this as an advert and it scaring the living shit outa me. I didn’t even realise it was music. Now I’m listening on repeat
W E L I V E I N A S O C I E T Y
so thats where all the creepy clowns come from
love the song
? clownwar still ongoing
From the movie Villains 👍
just realizing now, ur singing w a fake british accent,, . just plain gejius......................................... OH Now i just learned ur Aussie. Keep crushing it Courtney
Dare Me
i thought i was the only one who points out his Clown of 2013 Award to try to score free drinks.
Came here from Villains ✨♥️
After 40 years of listening to pop music this just bulls its way into the top 10 songs... lyrics and power, bring it.
They told me that Joaquin Phoenix changed a lot to act as the Joker but not that much, i'm impressed.
This is great
I am so glad I was introduced to her. she really is ahh-mazing!
AMO🇧🇷 AMO🇧🇷 E AMO🇧🇷
Hard as garage rock, lovely!
Essa música é firme!
Imo, the song doesnt fit the video
She is wonderful!!! ❤️
Amazing
The chorus 🖤
Animal Kingdom skydiving scene!
I always hear this in the hard rock cafe lmao
They should have put some distortion on vocals for the "saturated analog" line.
I know it's.. eh.. *pedestrian* (Can't help it. It's literally the correct word for this situation. Lol)
..But it would have been cool and cheeky nonetheless.
it's cute when she meets her actual partner at the end <3
You are a Bunch of Clowns...... ....
I’m proud I’m related to her
Pics or it didn't happen
Monsieur La Guillotine lol how can I post pics, my mums maiden name is Barnett tho
@Frank Oreo .....
Man I wish I had "Oreo" as my name.
Nope, still can’t think of a better track in the last five years.
How about the last twenty years??
This song empties my gym when it come on rotation at 9am every day. Piece of shit is an embarrassment to music
Gran Turismo Sport sent me here
Alternative rock?
The new joker movie looks weird
it won't be with me on my death bed but i'll still be in your head
The first time i listened to this music at 2015, i didnt get it. Now i do
Joder de lo bueno que es !!!!!!!!
la sociedad más cute 2019
The Garden would be proud
GRAN TURISMO SPORT???
depressing
