Andrew Bird - Darkmatter lyrics
[Andrew Bird - Darkmatter lyrics]
When I was just a little boy
I threw away all of my action toys
While I became obsessed with Operation
With hearts and minds and certain glands
You gotta learn to keep a steady hand
And thus began my morbid fascination
Tore the spines from out of all
Of these self help books
Made myself a gun that not only
Shoots but looks so real
Yeah, it shoots through steel
With rays of darkmatter rays of darkmatter
Do you wonder where the self resides
Is it in your head or between your sides
And who'll would be the one who will decide
Its true location
And does the thought about this red and black
Thought of tongues that taste you back
Fill you with the nausea of elation
Noose is loosed around our necks made of DNA
And every day it's growing tighter
No matter what they do or say
And you can shoot right through
With rays of darkmatter
Just before they kick out
They kick out the ladder
With rays of darkmatter, rays of darkmatter
Like something catching fire
I threw away all of my action toys
While I became obsessed with Operation
With hearts and minds and certain glands
You gotta learn to keep a steady hand
And thus began my morbid fascination
Tore the spines from out of all
Of these self help books
Made myself a gun that not only
Shoots but looks so real
Yeah, it shoots through steel
With rays of darkmatter rays of darkmatter
Do you wonder where the self resides
Is it in your head or between your sides
And who'll would be the one who will decide
Its true location
And does the thought about this red and black
Thought of tongues that taste you back
Fill you with the nausea of elation
Noose is loosed around our necks made of DNA
And every day it's growing tighter
No matter what they do or say
And you can shoot right through
With rays of darkmatter
Just before they kick out
They kick out the ladder
With rays of darkmatter, rays of darkmatter
Like something catching fire
