Sing along to “Table For Glasses” by Jimmy Eat World with this custom duet karaoke version from The Proper Volume. Originally released on the landmark album Clarity in 1999, this song opens the record with a dreamy, emotional atmosphere that helped define an era of alternative and emo rock. Known for its layered vocals, introspective lyrics, and slow-building arrangement, “Table For Glasses” remains a fan favorite among longtime listeners of the band.
This is a special release for The Proper Volume — our first real attempt at a duet karaoke track. Vocal parts have been arranged to help two singers share the performance while preserving the spirit of the original recording. Whether you’re harmonizing with a friend or dramatically staring across the room during the chorus, this one was made to be sung loud and properly.
## About The Proper Volume:

We produce high-quality karaoke videos designed for singers who want better sound, better timing, and songs that deserve more love than the average karaoke catalog gives them.

# Lyrics
Sweep the dirty stairs
The ones I waited on
This is just for me
I felt it watching her
And it happened too fast
To make sense of it, make it last
It happened too fast
To make sense of it, make it last
Where do you intend to go
With your dirty dress?
Lead my skeptic sight
To the table and the light
It happened too fast
To make sense of it, make it last
It happened too fast
To make sense of it, make it last
Lead my skeptic sight
Lead my skeptic sight
Not asking of me anything
Saying nothing about what it means
Without anybody telling me
What I should feel
Not asking of me anything
Saying nothing about what it means
Without anybody telling me
What I should feel
What I should feel
Lead my skeptic sight
To the table and the light
