MARINA - Pancake Karma lyrics

They fell out into the navy
Night with smiles of stone
Walking down roads that glittered with
Winter light and snow
Linking thin arms, they swam a sea
A soul sea
Gleefully cackling, bitter and twisted
Burning like golden rings
It was the burning of the bright young things

Not a penny on them but
They had expensive needs
Flying down hot city streets
Country and the city mouse
Found an old, Dutch pancake house
Ordered a plate of syrupy lies
Yeah, they ate them all up
And licked the plate dry
Ordered, ate, left without paying
Syrupy, syrupy lies
Ran down the streets with pancake gods saying
We can see your guilty, guilty eyes
Tonight a pancake thief dies

Run as fast as you can
Run as fast as you can
Run as fast as you can
As fast as you can, as fast as you can

Because pancake karma is coming for you
Pancake karma is coming for you
Drunk kids never pay for food
Gives the gods a foul mood
Pancake karma is come - is coming for you

Sleepy when the drinks are magical winds
Parting winds of the bright things
Split them apart, cement on their way
To places where the pancake gods wait
One got lost and ended up in Leytonstone
Other missed the train or
Lost his wallet, Manbag, and his phone
60 pounds spent on a black cab
All the way back home all the way back home
No, all the way back home

Gods chirped, oh, you're not so smug anymore
Karma kicked your butt real good
The next time you try making
A runner for the door
Don't be tight, just pay for your food
Don't be tight, just pay for your food

Run as fast as you can
Run as fast as you can
Run as fast as you can
As fast as you can, as fast as you can

Because pancake karma is coming for you
Pancake karma will always ring true
Drunk kids never pay for food
Gives the pancake gods a foul mood

Pancake karma is come-, is come
Ooh ooh is coming for you
Ooh ooh
