Los Campesinos! - Drop It Doe Eyes lyrics

rate me

ou expected my war diaries

But time ran out and I,

I let you down.

A small thanks note written in French

Is no shorthand for this thing gave me writers cramp.

I had a dream about shapeshifting

Well we move with such elegance

With such grace

With all our dignity just in place.

Deer die with their eyes wide open

Eyes wide open

Eyes wide open.

Deer die with their eyes wide open.

Drawing tiny little pictures of skeletons

To get across the sense of impending doom.

And the leaves like the artwork to major leagues

Look like dead foxes on the hard shoulder.

And for some reason I think that I attributed

This story to the bypass of the town I hadn't visited,

So goes the backing track

Of all the sighs we'd ever sighed.

Deer die with their eyes wide open

Eyes wide open

Eyes wide open.

Deer die with their eyes wide open.

Drawing tiny little pictures of skeletons

To get across the sense of impending doom.

And I am 17 pages through this notebook now

And there are little more than how I see

And an x-ray machine that's more like a television screen

And you're in a rut

And I know that you know what I mean,

Then the realisation hits

That not even two gospel choirs could save us now.

We are beautiful;

We are doomed.
