The National - Lemonworld lyrics

[The National - Lemonworld lyrics]

So happy I was invited
Gave me a reason to get out of the city
See you inside watching swarms on TV
Livin' and dyin' in New York
It means nothing to me
I gave my heart to the Army
The only sentimental thing I could think of
With cousins in colors and somewhere overseas
But it'll take a better war to
Kill a college man like me

I'm too tired to drive anywhere
Anyway right now, do you care if I stay?
You can put on your bathing suit's
And I'll try to find somethin' on
This thing that means nothin' enough
Losin' my breath, doo doo doo doo doo doo doo
Losin' my breath, doo doo doo doo doo doo doo

You and your sister live in a Lemonworld
I want to sit in and die
You and your sister live in a Lemonworld
Doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo
You and your sister live in a Lemonworld
I want to sit in and die
You and your sister live in a Lemonworld
Doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo

This pricey stuff makes me dizzy
I guess I've always been a delicate man
It takes me a day to remember a day
I didn't mean to let it get
So far out of hand i was a comfortable kid
But I don't think about it much anymore
Lay me on the table, put flowers in my mouth
And we can say that we invented
A summer lovin' torture party

I'm too tired to drive anywhere
Anyway right now, do you care if I stay?
You can put on your bathing suit's
And I'll try to find something on
This thing that means nothin' enough

You and your sister live in a Lemonworld
I want to sit in and die
You and your sister live in a Lemonworld
Doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo
You and your sister live in a Lemonworld
I want to sit in and die
You and your sister live in a Lemonworld
Doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo

Losin' my breath, doo doo doo doo doo doo
