Songtexte V.I.S. - Portugal. The Man

Under the bed, the world's looking back
Hide under the covers
Take off running through the graveyard
Dusting off my father's hat, I put it on
Big shirt and boots and all, and all, and all, and all, and all

Don't get too high, your head gets numb
The calico cat got your tongue
Don't listen when they whisper in your ear
How could you throw it all away?

In a million years the sun's burning out
But I still hear the gun (coming)
It's not a planet, it's a graveyard
And don't feel stupid trying to figure it out
'Cause when you know he comes around and around and around

Gotta leave before you leave me numb
Little baby sucking on my thumb
Don't listen when they whisper in your ear
How could you throw it all away?

Ooh, just listen in the afternoon
You can't wait to paint the room
Shatter in the clouds, the window looking out
Immeasurable sadness while he's looking out
Captain let me out, I can't carry the weight
Burn up in the atmosphere of doubt

Don't get too high, your head gets dumb
The calico cat got your tongue
Don't listen when they whisper in your ear
How could you throw it all away?
How could you throw it all away?
How could you throw it all away?
How could you throw it all away?
How could you throw it all away?
