[FST]
Listen To The Math; Tokyo Police Club
You've been famous since your birth
And a silent one it was till they told me, "It's a girl", and everybody gasped
I know how to raise you right, teach you how to read
And your math, yeah, toys, spelling, names, alphabet and how to be polite
You've been famous since your birth
A silent one it was till they told me, "It's a girl"
And everybody said, "You and your atlas know it all"
Let the corners curl 'cause if you go by night you'll hit the coast for sure
It's a ruse, it's a laugh
Experts, they agree, listen to the math
Australopithecine, rekindle your heart
These hospital machines are start of the art
SOCIAL LIFE;
Science facts are useful; Tripod
Oh help Mr Scientist I need you again, how does a hot air balloon rise?
Because it's a HOT-AIR balloon
How do I deal with girls, and not feel awkward?
... ...
Did you know that the atomic structure of butter is not dissimilar to...
But.. but I was asking about
Margarine on the other hand--
INTELLIGENCE;
A retinue of moons; Rasputina
Who knew that the sky is now found to contain
Benzene and methane and chalk
And bloody mud, muddy blood from the sky
From the sickly sweet wings of Edith’s Checkerspot Butterfly
They die in the ocean
Their legs are broken
The rain slows their flight as it soaks their wings
SISTER;
You and me against the world; The sleeping years
We’ve been trying for so long
just to be ourselves, to be left alone,
well if everyone is getting slow
then it’s you and me against the world.
Needle & Thread; Psapp
There is no needle & thread
That will mend you (mend you, mend you, mend you)
Don't you break
I will not let you
I'll make sure
They will not get you
Don't you break
I will not let you (I will not let you)
I'll make sure
They will not get you
PERSONALITY;
21st century living; Matthew good
I wonder if you can sup-
Can you supersize ambition?
Does that make you ambitious if you supersize ambition?
Around here, our ambition hurts more than it helps
Hit The Wall; Elizabeth & Catapult
Got a whole lot of demons up in my head
But I refuse to cut a deal just yet
Oh, no, when the world is dragging me down again
Yes I know, yes I know I can turn things around my friend
But I hit the wall again, I hit the wall again
You said nothing; Fall of snow
I'll try to give it meaning
Explain the constant decay
Seems like we're all screaming
Sounds like utter disarray
-- Hey
You better keep some memory of your home
closer than you did yesterday
The reserves they're almost empty
Don't I even get a say?
You said nothing.
CHILDHOOD;
Weird friendless kid; Emiliana Torrini
You might be weird but you're not stupid
We’ve all seen the pictures you drew
We know what’s in your head
Uninvited child
But you never seem to mind
Eating from your purple lunchbox
While we are talk about you
About you
Just a bubble in a perfect paintjob
Brings everybody down...
