Текст песни Australia - The Shins

Time to put the ear-covers on?
No!
La-la-la-laaa
La-la-la-laaa (Laaa)
La-la-la-la

(Born to) Born to multiply?
Born to gaze into night skies?
All you want′s one more Saturday

Well look here until then
They gonna buy your life's time
So keep your wick in the air and your feet in the fetters
′Til the day

We come in doing cartwheels
We all crawl out by ourselves
And your shape on the dance floor
Will have me thinking such filth and gouge my eyes

You'll be damned to be one of us, girl
Faced with the dodo's conundrum
I felt like I could just fly
But nothing happened every time I tried

Wooo, ooooh!
A duotone on the wall
A selfless fool who hoped he′d save us all
Never dreamt of such sterile hands

You keep ′em folded in your lap
And raise them up to beg for scraps
You know he's holding you down
With the tips of his fingers just the same

Well, you′ll be pulled from the ocean
But just a minute too late
Or changed by a potion
And find a handsome young mate for you to love

You'll be damned to pining through the windowpanes
You know you′d trade your life for any ordinary Joe
Well do it now or grow old
Your nightmares only need a year or two to unfold

Been alone since you were twenty-one
You haven't laughed since January
You try and make like this so much fun
But we know it to be quite contrary
La-la-la-la-la-la-la

Dare to be one of us, girl
Faced with the android′s conundrum
I felt like I should just cry
But nothing happens every time I take one on the chin
You're Himmler in your coat, you don't know how long I have been
Watching the lantern dim
Starved of oxygen
So give me your hand and let′s jump out the windooow

Lala-la-la-laaa
(La-la-la-la)
Lala-la-la-laaa
(La-la-la-la)
Lala-la-la-laaa
(La-la-la-la)
Lala-la-la-laaa
