Robyn Hitchcock - Viva Sea-Tac! lyrics

rate me

People flocked like cattle to Seattle

After Kurt Cobain

And before him the rain

Hendrix played guitar just like an animal

That's trapped inside a cage

And one day he escaped

Do you want to pay for this in cash?

Viva Seattle Tacoma, viva viva Sea-Tac

Viva Seattle Tacoma, viva viva Sea-Tac

Viva viva viva viva viva Sea-Tac

They've got the best computers

And coffee and smack

Coming and going it has to be Boeing

The best form of defense

Is blow them up

In a regular cup

Have an espresso, you will?

Oh I guess so

I feel my heart is gonna start to jump

'Cause it's wired to a pump

And the Space Needle points to the sky

The Space Needle's such a nice guy

But he never knows...

Viva Seattle Tacoma, viva viva Sea-Tac

Viva Seattle Tacoma, viva viva Sea-Tac

All the Norwegians, man

You should see them

Out in Ballard looking soulful at the pines

And also the Swedes

All of the groovers came from Vancouver

And some of them came up from Oregon

In case you don't know

But the Space Needle points to the sky

The Space Needle's such a nice guy

But you never know...

Viva Seattle Tacoma, viva viva Sea-Tac

Viva Seattle Tacoma, viva viva Sea-Tac

Viva viva viva viva viva Sea-Tac

They've got the best computers and coffee and smack

Viva Seattle Tacoma, viva viva Sea-Tac

Viva Seattle Tacoma, viva viva Sea-Tac

Viva Seattle Tacoma, viva viva Sea-Tac

Viva Seattle Tacoma, viva viva Sea-Tac

Long live everything in Washington State

Including everybody

May they live to a million years

May they reproduce until there's no room To go anywhere

Clustered under the Space Needle

Like walking eggs with arms and legs

Viva viva viva viva viva

Alright, we can probably stop

(Whoops)<br />
