Biography:
Silver Jews was an American indie rock band from New York City. The band's earliest incarnation was the college band Ectoslavia, formed by future Pavement founders Bob Nastanovich, Stephen Malkmus and frontman David Berman at the University of Virginia in 1989. An exercise in joyous noise, the band disbanded after graduation and the three friends moved to New York to take up various jobs - Nastanovich, a bus driver, and Berman and Malkmus, art museum security guards.

Are you honest when no one's looking?

They sat there with their hooks in the water

O come let us adore them, California overboard

They see the things they need through the windows of a hatchback
Am F C E
The alleys are the footnotes of the avenues.
Am F
O come let us adore them, California overboard
Am F C E
holding up their trousers with extension cords.
