Yesterday, Never

Lyrics by Alec Ounsworth

Misunderstood, I’ll bet, and you will ask me to answer what I can’t know 
It’s safe to say I wasn’t with you then 
And it is hard to tell if I am now 
It is hard to tell if I am now

The scientist tracked the wild beast through the jungle 
And straight to your door 
You shot it dead and you took its head and put it high upon your wall 
With a head upon your wall

In your article 
How did you put it?

You had me ‘round your finger, did you? 
Microphone, sick spit on it, 
Make me feel no shame for a moment 
Yesterday never was 
Yesterday never was 
Yesterday, never
