Australia - the Shins

Time to put the earphones on No!

La la la la La la la la Laaaaaaa

La la la la

(Born to multiply) Born to multiply

Born to gaze into night skies

When all you want’s one more Saturday

Well look here until then

They gonna buy your life’s time

So keep your wick in the air and your feet in the fetters

'Till the day we come in doing cartwheels

We all crawl out by ourselves

And your shape on the dance floor

Will have me thinking such filth I’ll gouge my eyes

You’d be damned to be one of us girl

Faced with a dodo’s conundrum

I felt like I could just fly

But nothing happend every time I tried

Wooo, ooooh!

A duotone on the wall

The selfless fool who hoped he’d save us all

Never dreamt of such sterile hands

You keep them folded in your lap

Or raise them up to beg for scraps

You know he’s holding you down

With the tips of his fingers just the same

Will you be pulled from the ocean

But just a minute too late

Or changed by a potion

And find a handsome young mate for you to love

You’ll be damned to pining through the windowpanes you know

You’d trade your life for any ordinary Joe’s

Well do it now or grow old cause

Your nightmares only need a year or two to unfold

Been alone since you were twenty-one

You haven’t laughed since January

You try and make like this is so much fun

But we know it to be quite contrary

La la la la la la la Dare to be one of us girl

Faced with the android’s conundrum

I felt like I should just cry

But nothing happens every time I take one on the chin

Yeah Himmler in your coat you don’t know how long I’ve been

Watching the lantern dim starved of oxygen

So give me your hand and let’s jump out the window
