Mountain People - Super Furry Animals

They don’t care about you and me, obviously

No not us, we’re the mountain people

So far away from those tree-lined streets

Look so neat, not for us

No fat chance, we’re the mountain people

They’ll seek us in the valley

They’ll seek us on the plain

They own the milk and runny honey

And they’re not quite the same, and we

Live together under fantasy oak trees

In the dark, we make sparks

So unique, we’re the mountain people

Curiosity comes to plead with me

Vanity strangles me, pulls me

Shakes me down, we’re the mountain people

They’ll seek us in the valley

They’ll seek us on the plain

They own the milk and runny honey

And they’re not quite the same, because

They don’t care about you and me, obviously

Hand-me-down culture

Waiting for the vulture

Yes, yes, yes, we’re the mountain people

Hibernation comes so early this year

Dig the peat, pile it high

Let it dry, one last chance at ignorance

No fat chance, we’re the mountain people

One short blast was followed by two longer ones

Short blast, long blast

Coming from the outcast

Put me in a deep freeze

And I’ll sneeze, with the mountain people

From a distance I can see them

Pacing (marching) upstream

Slowly, ruthlessly, and then steady

Nets and cages, open, ready

Long-term memory

Soothes me, worry me

Take me, break me

Any way you fancy

Deep freeze put me in it and I’ll sneeze

A deep freeze put me in it and I’ll sneeze

A deep freeze put me in it and I’ll sneeze

A deep freeze put me in it

(So I’ll make history)
