A Few Minutes Of Silence Lyrics

Cover art for A Few Minutes Of Silence lyrics by Paul Westerberg

where are the mats fans? no comments yet? So, here is my take on it. Paul westerberg was a member of the Replacements, a Minnesota roots garage band. they practiced as teenages and twenty somethings at homes and garages of family and friends. The song is about the occupants wanting some silence. you gotta love the line, "Play me want I want to hear, don;t make me come down there". A moment of silence!!! you can picture the band asking 'what do you want to hear?" because they are proud of their songs. But the occupany has had enough and wants them to "play some silence".
