Yeasayer - Gerson's Whistle lyrics

No Snowflake in an avalanche ever
Feels responsible at all

Gerson's always whistling
Hear him stomping up and down the hall
Oh oh, oh, oh his vitriol's a missile
And he wields his temper like a wrecking ball
Oh oh, oh, oh

You know one of these days
I'll get out of this place
It's too damn loud

Watching Robert Mitchum films
The volume on 11 in his room oh oh, oh, oh
Never sleeps the Bennies keep him vibrating
From midnight until noon oh oh, oh, oh

You know one of these days
I'll get out of this place
It's too damn loud
But, you know what they say
The troublemakers made the world go round

Oh can you hear? There is something there
In the darkness oh can you hear?
There is something there in the darkness
Oh can you hear? There is something there
In the darkness oh can you hear?
There is something there in the darkness

Them voices bringing me down
I feel that I cracked my head open
You might feel safer now
How will you know when there's danger?

They yell out "okay, crazy!"
"The world must have made him insane"
They yell out "okay" and "crazy!"
"The world must have made him insane"
They yell out "okay, crazy!"
"The world must have made him insane" oh, oh
They yell out "okay, crazy!"
The world must have made him insane
They yell out "okay, crazy!"
The world must have made him insane
Oh, oh, oh, oh
