You torched a Saab like a pile of leaves
I’d gone to find some better wheels
4, 5 meters running round the bend
When the government agents surround you again
If Diane Young won’t change your mind,
Baby, baby, baby, baby right on time
Out of control but you’re playing a role
Do you think you can go til the 18th hole
Diane Young

You are my fire
The one desire
Believe when I say
I want it that way
When we are two worlds apart
Can't reach to your heart
When you say that I want it that way
Tell me why
Don't Lie

I took your council and you came to ruin
Leave me to myself, leave me to myself
I took your council and you came ruin
Leave me to myself, leave me to myself
Oh I was born to live without you,
But I’m never gonna understand, never understand
Oh I was born to live without you,
But I’m never gonna understand, never understand
Hold me in your everlasting arms
Everlasting Arms

Bend the finger back, snap!
Break your hip, break your toe
Break it til your left hand's straight
Hit me with a wood bat,
Hit me with a canister
Just found my soul, drive away
Bend the finger back, snap!
Owwww, owwww, owwww
Hurt for days
Finger Back

A gardener told me some plants move
But I could not believe it
Till me and Hannah Hunt
Saw crawling vines and weeping willows
As we made our way from Providence to Phoenix
A man of faith said
Hidden eyes could see what I was thinking
I just smiled and told him
That was only true of Hannah
Hannah Hunt

Hudson died in Hudson bay,
The water took his victim's name,
Now rivers rise told riverside,
To change their names again.
(Choral humming)
A stranger walked in through the door,
Said "All apartments are pre-war",
We laughed and I asked him for his name,
Hudson

Morning's come, you watch the red sun rise,
The LED still flickers in your eyes,
Oh you outta' spare your face the razor,
Because no one's gonna' spare the time for you.
No one's gonna' watch you as you go,
From a house you didn't build and can't control,
Oh, you outta' spare your face the razor,
Because no one's gonna' spare the time for you.
Why don't you spare the world your labour,
Obvious Bicycle

Every time I see you in the world
You always step to my girl
Back back way back
I used to front like angkor wat
Mechanicsburg, anchorage, and dar e salaam
While home in new york
Was champagne and disco tapes
From L.A. slash san francisco

Got a little soul
The world is a cold, cold place to be
Want a little warmth
But who’s going to save a little warmth for me
We know the fire awaits unbelievers
All of the sinners the same
Girl you and I will die unbelievers bound to the tracks of the train
See the snow come down
Unbelievers

Only in the way you want it
Only on the day you want it
Only with the one stand and every single day you want it
Only in the way you want it
Only on the day you want it
Only with the one stand and every single day you want it
You, you
City with the weight upon it
City in the way you want it
Worship You

[Verse 1]
Oh, sweet thing
Zion doesn't love you
And Babylon don't love you
But you love everything.
Oh, you saint
America don't love you
So I could never love you
In spite of everything
Ya Hey
