The Kills - Blue Moon lyrics

rate me

wake up to a blue moonin the sky

a cool china blue

hear the thunder of life driving by

guess its finally on the loose

and i smell the shoot sweat

on the sick-a-more trees

as the branches collide

with every thought i think

now the neighborhood cat is calling

he cant sleep

says the oxygen in the needle and pin

has sprung a leek

well he really took a chance

crossing his heart hoping to die

he was young and he was happy

at the time

it seems to be like cinema

silver turns to its old tricks

magic loses all its magic

and you know what it really is

the young men who used to use their knuckles

are gone,

but the tadpoles keep on multiplaying

down in the swamp

when the pearly gates do open

dragging their legs out of spite

inside a woman sits to greet you

welcome home to the night

its the last motel with electric,

she says,

take a seat while the maid goes

and cleans up your mess

honey it could take an hour,

it could take all year,

it could take a century

for your bad name to clear

wake up to blue moon in the sky

a cool china blue

hear the thunder of life driving by

guess its finally on the move

<br />

<br />
