The New Pornographers - High Art, Local News lyrics

In a good girl new world, teaming with you
Filled to the roof
To make high art, mad love, nightly news
Skip the reviews
They don't want to be known
Don't want it read

"It's just something that's floating
In somebody's head"

So let me, princess, print
This let me, princess, print this
In a postcard parkside rendez-vous
Teaming with you
To make high art based on walking the dog
Walking through fog
And please, skip the reviews
Because someone you've met's
Become something exploding in somebody's head
Let me, princess, print this
Let me, princess, print this

It leaves voices in people

In a countdown downtown
Total eclipse, big as the Ritz

You find new signs no time
Some you could use lost in your shoes

But don't skip the reviews
We don't want it said
"It's just something that's floating
In somebody's head"

Let me, princess, print this
