Elbow - Neat Little Rows lyrics

[Elbow - Neat Little Rows lyrics]

My high priestess folded neatly
Back in your box, oh Lord
Called the song he sang so sweetly
Back in your box, oh Lord

Found myself astride a tiger
Lifting my head just like you said
Drown me now in down of eider
Get me to bed, oh Lord

Lay my bones in cobblestones
Lay my bones in neat little rows
Lay my bones in cobblestones
Lay my bones in neat little rows
Angels and idols spiraling wild
Winding your necks, oh Lord
Landed gentry ride up behind me
Winding your necks, oh Lord

Smokey progress, backroom sages
Let me back in, pull back the pin
'Cause now I follow sawn up pages
Can't read the text, oh no

In the house where they grew up
There were secrets and the saints
That the eyes that
Would give anything to the

Would picture the counting your fingers
Waiting for the focus of your eyes
Oh, no don't play fingers
Fingers are for pointing at the sky
Oh, no don't play fingers
Fingers are for pointing at the sky

Yah, da, da, da, da, da, da, da
Yah, da, da, da, da, da, da, da
Yah, da, da, da, da, da, da, da
Lay my bones in cobblestones

Yah, da, da, da, da, da, da, da
Yah, da, da, da, da, da, da, da
Yah, da, da, da, da, da, da, da
Lay my bones in neat little rows

Yah, da, da, da, da, da, da, da
Yah, da, da, da, da, da, da, da
Yah, da, da, da, da, da, da, da
Lay my bones in cobblestones

Yah, da, da, da, da, da, da, da
Yah, da, da, da, da, da, da, da
Yah, da, da, da, da, da, da, da
Lay my bones in neat little rows
