Nine Horses - Librarian lyrics
[Nine Horses - Librarian lyrics]
Keep your head down keep your head down
While they're firing low
You're too young child
To know the difference
Oh my pretty oh my sweet girl
It's a marvelous place they put weights down
In your coat tails to burn you out
Lest you fly lest you take off
And show whomever what's what
It's one outrageous lie after another
Turn their lights out change the channel
Before we lose the heart
To fight against belief in
What they're saying
There's a hotel with a dark room
At the end of a corridor i will meet you
To the strains of Allah
We will lie back
On a pillow of the whitest snow
And the silence we were promised
Will engulf us
Lay your head down keep your head down
While they're firing low
You're too young child
You're too young child
We will wake up from the dreams that bury us
We will tunnel our way out by moonlight
From the dark room
To the white streets and the snow banks
We'll invest in one another's future
Oh my pretty oh my sweet girl
It's a marvelous place she designed it
With escape routes for you and me
So to the library with your new card
Grab your favorite books look for blueprints
To the strains of Allah here we go
Benevolence is in back
Of everyplace you look
It's not a monstrous face she is hiding
If I see her i will tell you
You'll come quickly if you see her
Don't hesitate just go
But til then
Keep your head down keep your head down
While they're firing low
You're too young child
You're too young child
You're too young child here we go
While they're firing low
You're too young child
To know the difference
Oh my pretty oh my sweet girl
It's a marvelous place they put weights down
In your coat tails to burn you out
Lest you fly lest you take off
And show whomever what's what
It's one outrageous lie after another
Turn their lights out change the channel
Before we lose the heart
To fight against belief in
What they're saying
There's a hotel with a dark room
At the end of a corridor i will meet you
To the strains of Allah
We will lie back
On a pillow of the whitest snow
And the silence we were promised
Will engulf us
Lay your head down keep your head down
While they're firing low
You're too young child
You're too young child
We will wake up from the dreams that bury us
We will tunnel our way out by moonlight
From the dark room
To the white streets and the snow banks
We'll invest in one another's future
Oh my pretty oh my sweet girl
It's a marvelous place she designed it
With escape routes for you and me
So to the library with your new card
Grab your favorite books look for blueprints
To the strains of Allah here we go
Benevolence is in back
Of everyplace you look
It's not a monstrous face she is hiding
If I see her i will tell you
You'll come quickly if you see her
Don't hesitate just go
But til then
Keep your head down keep your head down
While they're firing low
You're too young child
You're too young child
You're too young child here we go
