MGMT - Congratulation |
| [00:02.00] |
|
| [00:16.37] |
Dead in the water |
| [00:19.41] |
It's not a paid vacation |
| [00:23.66] |
The sons and daughters of city officials |
| [00:28.05] |
Attend demonstrations |
| [00:31.62] |
It's hardly a sink or swim |
| [00:34.33] |
When all is well if the ticket sells |
| [00:39.03] |
|
| [00:46.78] |
Out with a wimper |
| [00:50.27] |
It's not a blaze of glory |
| [00:54.22] |
You look down from your temple |
| [00:57.00] |
As people endeavor to make it a story |
| [01:01.52] |
And chisel a marble word |
| [01:05.01] |
But all is lost if it's never heard |
| [01:09.57] |
|
| [01:16.64] |
But I've got someone to make reports |
| [01:20.48] |
That tell me how my money's spent |
| [01:24.47] |
To book my stays and draw my blinds |
| [01:28.17] |
So I can't tell what's really there |
| [01:32.35] |
And all I need's a great big congratulations |
| [01:38.39] |
|
| [01:51.10] |
I'll keep your dreams |
| [01:55.47] |
You pay attention for me |
| [01:59.55] |
As strange as it seems |
| [02:02.13] |
I'd rather dissolve than have you ignore me |
| [02:07.22] |
The ground may be moving fast |
| [02:10.23] |
But I tied my boots to a broken mast |
| [02:14.93] |
|
| [02:22.67] |
The difference is clear |
| [02:26.46] |
You throw it in your cauldron |
| [02:30.45] |
Rust and veneer, dusk and dawn |
| [02:34.50] |
Steinways and Baldwins |
| [02:38.29] |
You start with a simple stock of all the waste |
| [02:43.09] |
And salt to taste |
| [02:45.62] |
|
| [02:53.08] |
But damn my luck and damn these friends |
| [02:56.60] |
That keep on combing back their smiles |
| [03:00.64] |
I save my grace with half-assed guilt |
| [03:04.23] |
And lay down the quilt upon the lawn |
| [03:08.36] |
Spread my arms and soak up congratulations |
| [03:14.69] |
|
