Act Surprised
Unveiling Love's Surprises: Superchunk's Melodic Revelation
Lyrics
Standing stunned in the hallway, while you fumble with your lighter
Observing someone in a state of shock in the hallway while they struggle with a lighter.
And I could make sure you recall
Expressing the ability to ensure the person remembers, but preferring a non-confrontational approach as a lover, not a fighter.
But I'm a lover not a fighter
Reiterating the stance of being a lover rather than a fighter.
And it's a wonder that you're here
Expressing amazement or disbelief at the person's presence.
And it's a wonder that I'm still waiting...
Reflecting on the surprising fact that the speaker is still waiting in the situation.
Well Act surprised

Drop your delivery

Well I always loved your accent
Expressing admiration for the person's accent.
Thick how it was

Like you just got back from somewhere
Comparing the accent to someone who just returned from somewhere.
And you could not adjust
