Genius Next Door - Regina Spektor Some said the local lake had been enchanted Others said it must have been the weather The neighbors were trying to keep it quiet But I swear that I could hear the laughter (...) If you just hold in your breath til you come back up in full Hold in your breath til you thought it through, you fool. The genius next door was busing tables Wiping clean the ketchup bottle labels Getting high and mumbling German fables Didn't care as long as he was able To strip his clothes off by the dumpsters At night while everyone was sleeping And to wade midway into that porridge Just him and the secret he was keeping.
Genius Next Door - Regina Spektor
Some said the local lake had been enchanted
Others said it must have been the weather
The neighbors were trying to keep it quiet
But I swear that I could hear the laughter
(...)
If you just hold in your breath til you come back up in full
Hold in your breath til you thought it through, you fool.
The genius next door was busing tables
Wiping clean the ketchup bottle labels
Getting high and mumbling German fables
Didn't care as long as he was able
To strip his clothes off by the dumpsters
At night while everyone was sleeping
And to wade midway into that porridge
Just him and the secret he was keeping.
