Regina Spektor - Us lyrics
[Regina Spektor - Us lyrics]
They made a statue of us
And put it on a mountaintop
Now tourists come and stare at us
Blow bubbles with their gum
Take photographs of fun, have fun
They'll name a city after us
And later say it's all our fault
Then they'll give us a talking to
Then they'll give us a talking to
'Cause they've got years of experience
Living in a den of thieves
Rummaging for answers in the pages
Living in a den of thieves
And it's contagious and it's contagious
And it's contagious and it's contagious
We wear our scarves just like a noose
But not 'cause we want eternal sleep
And though our parts are slightly used
New ones are slave labor you can keep
Living in a den of thieves
Rummaging for answers in the pages
Living in a den of thieves
And it's contagious and it's contagious
And it's contagious and it's contagious
They made a statue of us
They made a statue of us
The tourists come and stare at us
The sculptor's marble sends regards
They made a statue of us
They made a statue of us
Our noses have begun to rust
Living in a den of thieves
Rummaging for answers in the pages
Living in a den of thieves
And it's contagious and it's contagious
And it's contagious and it's contagious
And it's contagious, oh
And it's contagious, oh
And it's contagious, oh
And it's contagious, oh
And put it on a mountaintop
Now tourists come and stare at us
Blow bubbles with their gum
Take photographs of fun, have fun
They'll name a city after us
And later say it's all our fault
Then they'll give us a talking to
Then they'll give us a talking to
'Cause they've got years of experience
Living in a den of thieves
Rummaging for answers in the pages
Living in a den of thieves
And it's contagious and it's contagious
And it's contagious and it's contagious
We wear our scarves just like a noose
But not 'cause we want eternal sleep
And though our parts are slightly used
New ones are slave labor you can keep
Living in a den of thieves
Rummaging for answers in the pages
Living in a den of thieves
And it's contagious and it's contagious
And it's contagious and it's contagious
They made a statue of us
They made a statue of us
The tourists come and stare at us
The sculptor's marble sends regards
They made a statue of us
They made a statue of us
Our noses have begun to rust
Living in a den of thieves
Rummaging for answers in the pages
Living in a den of thieves
And it's contagious and it's contagious
And it's contagious and it's contagious
And it's contagious, oh
And it's contagious, oh
And it's contagious, oh
And it's contagious, oh
