Harness Your Hopes Lyrics

Lyric discussion by Tremolo 

Cover art for Harness Your Hopes lyrics by Pavement

"Show me A word that rhymes with pavement ... And a - don't you try to etch it Or permanently sketch it"

Engravement. Was that so hard?

Song Meaning

@Tremolo almost as if that wasn’t the whole point

“And I won’t kill your parents and roast them on a spit” the word for that would be depravement

“And a-don’t you try to etch it or permanently sketch it” that’s an engravement

“Or you’re gonna catch a bad bad cold” another word for that is ailment

All those rhyme with pavement, the lyrics are very clever
