Duck and Cover
atom bombs and earthquakes
hide your kids, brings out the guns
duck and cover and duck and cover and come on under into our hives
follow the laughter and follow the gleam
the rabbit is eager, lend him your dream
feel for the trenches and put up your hands
take out your lunchbox and pull out your pens
atom bombs and earthquakes
hide your wife, show me your gun
duck and cover and duck and cover and come on under into my hive
i'll be your master, i'll show you my land
the rabbit is eager, the queen in her van
feel for the trenches and put up your hands
take out your lunchbox and cancel your plans
atom bombs and earthquakes
leave your wife, let yourself fall
duck and cover and duck and cover and come on under into my hive
you'll be the master, the king of this land
i'll surrender, i'm a queen in your hand
feel for the trenches and put up your hands
play your cards right in this wonderland
Ou sont les champignons
Ou sont les champignons
Demande à Alice
Viens mon petit lapin
Viens mon petit lapin
donne moi ta main
sur mon chemin

my phone shows nothing from you
friends said you are not busy

hey, poked you a few minutes ago
haven't heard back from you
friends said you are hanging around
yea, well i'll bury you underground
talky face pie hole
hey, just tweeted you

i know you are reading it
i know you can read me
hey, just knocked on your door
your silence is making me deaf
don't make me squeeze out you last breath

talky face pie hole, die, die, you die

Poughkeepsie

took the train to poughkeepsie, wanted to write you a song
never found a melody, all my angels were gone
winter losing, the snow melts with you
i'm tired of losing, couldn't hang on to you
running lapses in memories
trying to rid myself of memories of you
quiet held in the room, only whispers of night
killed all ghosts who loomed, trying to make it all right
no sleeping tonight, no dreaming of you
just me and the light of the moon so blue
running lapses in memories
trying to rid myself of memories of you
took the train back to brooklyn, flowers seem to bloom
maybe i had no melody, but now i could resume
waters dissolving, green in the wind
owls of the morning the preachers of my sins

Platform
03:40

|

picnic, lightning, no sparks, just lightning
and then i ran into you
i figured why doubt fate
and i set eyes on you
on that sandy platform day
geomancy and black magic at their wisest game
aint no joke, ain't it funny
when a man don't love you the same
blinded, storming, no cigar, just cruising
and were you thinking
of her then
at the cloisters
and in my bed
geomancy and black magic at their wisest game
ain't no joke, ain't it funny
when a man don't love you the same
picnic, lightning, no regrets, just lightning
and if i known i'd fall for you
i'd run so far away
but my eyes locked on to you
on that stupid platform day

Dans mes reves
Ce n'etait jamais toi
C'est une drole de chose
Grand, brun, acteur, ecrivain
Mais maintenant c'est toi que j'aime
Dommage que je serai,
Loin d'ici, loin loin d'ici
Loin de toi
Dans mes reves,
Ce n'etait jamais toi
C'est une drole de chose
Grand, brun, chanteur, musicien
Mais maintenant c'est toi que j'aime
Dommage que je serai,
Loin d'ici, loin loin d'ici
Loin de toi
Mais qu'on est bien
On est tellement bien ensemble
Dans tes bras
C'est la que je me sens le mieux
Avec toi
Loin d'ici, loin loin d'ici
Loin de toi
Mais qu'on est bien
On est tellement bien ensemble
En si peu de temps
Je suis tombe amoureuse
Dans tes bras
Dans mes reves,
Ce soir ce sera toi
C'est une drole de chose
Beau, brun, mon americain
Et maintenant c'est toi que j'aime
Mais demain je suis
Loin d'ici, loin loin d'ici
Loin de toi
