Well, there’s a perfect explanation
For the shit that I’ve been in
As soon as I find out I’ll let you know
And if it’s any consolation
Well, your horse is going to win
‘Cause mine and all the others are just
Too slow
There’s a coastline
I’d like to go back
And if you don’t mind
I’m going to turn ‘round in my tracks
It’s good to be back
Down the coastline
We lost contact
And I hope that you don’t mind
I was trying to save us both some time
I was trying to save us both some time
Haven't dug up anything with my cursory search except this line from a review which made me laugh out loud so I thought I'd share On one song, "Coastline", you can almost hear Frank Black sipping whisky from James Taylor's skull hehehe
as per usual, insights, quotes, references, theories and just plain old what do you think?
and isn't it a nice day everyone? ( )

That'd be news to me for sure.

I keep hearing there is supposedly an extended/full length version of this song out there somewhere. Don't know in what context though, whether it's an extra verse or an extended coda. I do not know... Anybody?

Maybe it's literally a Horse Racetrack on the coastline of California that he re-connected with an old acquaintance. Him and this old acquaintance used to ride, surf or skate not far from the location just down the Coastline.
Like this:
The Derby Club at Seaside Park
Map shows it on the Coastline

The lyrics seem pretty straightforward to me. I say we move on.

I think it's brilliant. I think the Catholics should tour as soon
as the Pixies summer tour's over.
That said, I wonder which coastline he's talking about? Or is
it all figuritive?
 I still believe in the excellent joy of the Catholics |
