lyrics

Joe went to IKEA
He didn't have a clue what he was looking for
He unlocked the door to find it

In between the aisles
The store would go for miles in foreign languages
And that's when he finally gave in

Wasn't quite fulfilling
The bookends and the linens overwhelming him
But she came around and smiled

Joe went to IKEA
On Tuesday he ate meatballs at the restaurant
And she helped him buy a sofa

Malm, Ektorp, Latt, Billy
Malm, Ektorp, Latt, Billy
Malm, Ektorp, Latt, Billy
Malm, Ektorp, Latt, Billy

Joe went to IKEA
The parking lot was packed with high end vehicles
He felt shame about his Kia

Shopping lasted hours
He met a few employees that were nice to him
But he wanted to see Sara

She went on her work break
They left and had some coffee at the donut place
It was better than the Starbucks

Joe went home for dinner
He thought about the day and the good time he had
Then he skipped his daily Xanax

Malm, Ektorp, Latt, Billy
Malm, Ektorp, Latt, Billy
Malm, Ektorp, Latt, Billy
Malm, Ektorp, Latt, Billy

Falling in love at IKEA
It's not the best place to meet
Falling in love at IKEA
Hey you forgot your receipt

So he bought himself a little MIDI keyboard, a cheap guitar and some software and eventually learned how to play (mostly). From there, Clever Transient was born. It was either that, or bake bread. ... more
