Places Like This

And we're slow to acknowledge the knots on the laces
heart it races
and we go back to where we moved out to the places
heart it races
i bought it in a can and stirred it with my finger
singing boom-dadadadadadada boom-dadadada
through it out the window
and lately you've been tanned
suspicious for the winter with your
boom-dadadadadadada boom-dadadada
legs like little splinters
and we're slow to acknowledge the knots in the laces
heart it races
and we go back to where we move out to the places
heart it races
i sold it to a man and threw him out that window
he went boom-dadadadadadada boom-dadadada
made his wife a widow
heart it races alone
everybody go
Boom dadadadadadada boom dadadada

Hey you know my friend lisa
she's down from LA
we've been places like this
there always the same
we'll loosen the rope just enough to make you pay
say my memory is hazy
wer'e moving away
to rent a display home
avoid all the grey
2 bees in a swarm
the honey's stuck us by the hairhold music
give it to me baby dont you dare lose it

when we're sleeping in daily
there's ice on the road
i bought us a dragon
to lighten the load
he's keeping us warm
the blood keep flowing to your head
Hey i've never been stately
I'm legless at sea
my spirit has felt you since 1903
I'm trying to be normal
but there's evil in my head

hold music
give it to me bay dont you dare lose it

You're so dangerous
everybody's gonna hide out back
it doesnt matter that you're serious
move along sad face your cover's blown
cmon there you are
and we're outta space and you're out of space
i said change the beat fast
or your enemies will see you naked

hold music hold music hold

When we were out drinking
i found you a home
4 million in prizes
you left me alone
when we were forlorn
i found some poison in your bed
Though you may mistake me
I'll never be free
I'm stuck in the crossfire
between you and he
tattoos on his arms
he got a needle for a head

hold music
give it to me bay dont you dare lose it

I've never seen you frown this much
It's time that we
left this haunted town
The spookiness of night surrounds us in trees
us on bikes on fountains
Never been alone as such
Your foots on the clutch
your hand's on my crutch
slow down
and run in little circles til circles are
black and on the ground.
and clever isn't where it's at
cos dumb is back
heads are holes and clouds

And I've never seen you frown this much
it's time that we got this flaunting down
a feather in a baseball cap
you dance all wack
weakened knees call

And I've never seen you frown this much
It's time that we rocked three daunting nouns
It's better not to holla back
cos life long cracks
speak through these walls

Look both ways when you leave the building
the wrath of millions of thieves lies disguised
while the children of makeshift hills
let the code of silence repeat 16 times
when we get delayed can we cast a line towards anyone dismayed
can we go it alone say say say
caught me listening to water dripping
from those old lips to a town where its dry
when you leave don't say
that anyone here will be thinking in modern ways
can we go it alone say say say
Look both ways when you leave the building
the wrath of millions of thieves lies disguised

Here underwater we're down. Here underwater way down.

So i shook hands with you freely
made a promise not to clean the slate
and i didn't need you 'til melody
drew a line between love and hate
and i know i can be self righteous
and we both like to stretch the truth
but there's never been a song or a melody
that reminds me less of youth

hey there hey there
debbie down debbie down

And i felt my head exploding
so i left it beside the road
in the tall grass where
all the deer despair
at the thought of being stuffed in my home
and first we were antisocial
til we tried hibernating through
all the seasons where you dye your hair
in a failed attempt on blue

Said the fibber to the snake
there's an opportunist dude
watch his mouth its open wide
and he trying not to eat you

hey there hey there
debbie down debbie down

A wicked decision
We can agree
A wicked decision
Nothing's wrong with you and me

A week in the forest
A week in the fog
You'll be sad to hear that
I I I I I was robbed

And we're gonna own it
A fist to the voice
And we've found the music
Why did you try at the choice?

And decapitation
for failing to see
Nothing in this whole wide world saves us from this situation
[Nothing can save us]

Don't stop talkin' to me please
baby cut me all to pieces
If you really want hell, hell
Ripped apart by the crows not the vultures
No one in this fair new world can talk us through this situation

Speak in the garden
You burn down the trees
I'll leave out the teasin'
while you are down on one knee

Never is heavy
and heavy is fine
but only in the street man
you ate your words wrong this time

It's wicked where you tread
Shot an arrow in your head
Since the apple wasn't there, yeah.
Ripped apart by the crows and the vultures
Ignore me in the parking lot
I'm petrified by conversation.

It's wicked where you tread
They shot an arrow at your head
Since the apple wasn't there, yeah.
We're ripped apart by the crow and the vultures
Ignore me in the parking lot
I'm petrified by conversation.

You can catch me on the street, shaking out my legs to greet
Our new neighbours with the same old innocence
Walking, rolling i'm your stone
Cease the aching in your bones
And when we woke up from this heat
You broke your fingers on the beat
All ashamed about the same old innocence.

Way Oh Way Oh Way Oh
She will knock you up
She will knock you down

You can see me be discreet
Keeping visions of defeat
All ashamed about the same old innocence
With a footstep that's a soul
Keep the aching in your bones
Keep it raining on the same old innocence

Even where crows fly
we are squawking like it's love
We are squawking long lost talking
we been where the arrows play

Way Oh Way Oh Way Oh
She will knock you up
She will knock you down

And you can see me be discreet
Keeping visions of defeat
All ashamed about the same old innocence

And you can catch me on the street, shaking out my legs to greet
Our new neighbours with the same old innocence
