TV Girl - The Getaway lyrics

rate me

Well, let’s think that we are boats

What is playing in the shrouds

It was short and it was strong

Like the air in a shrunken head

And all the kids there spread the pieces on the floor

By the time they fit together we had forgotten what they were for

Pretending like she’s beautiful in the pictures I can see

But she only fits together, it’s more than I can say for me

But that’s the way it always is

Feel like running outside

Speaking about bandits

Tell your girl when it falls apart

It falls apart

Yeah, we dressed up like a priest

You’re always going through the wall

Cracking the safe and skipping town

Walk…

You’re always looking for the future

Rinsing out the dark

Looking for a moral to the story

Sound the girl, hop on the run

Mary on the gallows dressed like nothing’s wrong

No funeral, no flowers…

But that’s the way it always is

Feel like running outside

Speaking about bandits

Tell your girl when it falls apart

It falls apart
