Clap Your Hands Say Yeah
Maniac
(Maniac)
Don't say it ain't nothin'
When I can see it in your eyes
Of course ceremonial weakness led to them hard drugs
But don't ask me if I understand what is good for me tonight
Can't you see it's harmless?
A little light justice
Some say so long, how could you?
Some say come sit here by the fire
I will just wave goodbye to ordinary people's awkward situations
Officer, you can take me but leave my daughter alone
We could sit around forever, mama,
And find there are no stars in the sky
And we could page through all our haunted diary thoughts
I miss the way you stare at me as if I were a memory
Villain, statue of marble,
I don't want to touch no dark thoughts anymore, let me leave them alone,
Now and then safe and sound and send the clowns to document with words and photos
A brain on fire, a slashed summer tire
We all need somewhere to go
There's some way out of this silent film I've been living in
But my mind got stuck and I froze upon the burning coals
In another man's ritual
In another man's ritual
In another man's ritual
In another man's ritual
We could sit around forever, mama,
And find there are no stars in the sky
And we could page through all our haunted diary thoughts
I miss the way you stare at me as if I were a memory
Don't say it ain't nothin'
When I can see it in your eyes
Of course ceremonial weakness led to them hard drugs
But don't ask me if I understand what is good for me tonight
Can't you see it's harmless?
A little light justice
Some say so long, how could you?
Some say come sit here by the fire
I will just wave goodbye to ordinary people's awkward situations
