Regina Spektor - The Soup lyrics
[Regina Spektor - The Soup lyrics]
The soup the soup
The soup
The soup was hot and spilt
Pea and on the stove
And Michael and Marry and Bugsy
And Buster were all occupied
The pictures as clear as
Illusion in their mind
And the plan was foolproof
There was so much to do
First they'd decide who'd drive the car
Who'd wear the masks and
Who'd arrange the cops
Then they'd decide what were the rules
When do you shoot and when do you hold back
They'd synchronize their watches and the
Heartbeats in their ribcages
This can't be a mess, this can't be a mess
Nobody knows how it comes to be
That they think that they must and
They do what they can
But the cops are right there
And the sirens they blare
And the by starers stare
And everyone just stands
Bugsy went down first, then Marry then
Michael drove off and Buster just ran
He was running like a child
Running in a game of tag
Until he was hit, until he was "It"
The soup
The soup was hot and spilt
Pea and on the stove
And Michael and Marry and Bugsy
And Buster were all occupied
The pictures as clear as
Illusion in their mind
And the plan was foolproof
There was so much to do
First they'd decide who'd drive the car
Who'd wear the masks and
Who'd arrange the cops
Then they'd decide what were the rules
When do you shoot and when do you hold back
They'd synchronize their watches and the
Heartbeats in their ribcages
This can't be a mess, this can't be a mess
Nobody knows how it comes to be
That they think that they must and
They do what they can
But the cops are right there
And the sirens they blare
And the by starers stare
And everyone just stands
Bugsy went down first, then Marry then
Michael drove off and Buster just ran
He was running like a child
Running in a game of tag
Until he was hit, until he was "It"
