Radio Paradise (mobile)

After that confrontation, you left me wringing my cold hands
We shared some information we might not recover from
And I watch your convictions melt like ice cubes in an ocean
You were so poorly cast as a malcontent
You've got them all on your side, that just makes more for doubt to slaughter
I never knew he thought that, I heard you say, falling out of the van
Don't ask for his opinion, they ought to drown him in holy water
Will you remember my reply when your high horse dies?
We'd like to go the distance but not a one of us is going
You see, nobody's wise enough to turn this ancient boat around
These are the muddy waters I'm swimming in to make a living
That I might drown in them should come as no surprise
You want them all on your side, that just makes more for doubt to slaughter
I never knew he thought that, I heard you say, falling out of the van
Don't ask for his opinion, they ought to drown him in holy water
Will you remember my reply when your high horse dies?
You've got them all on your side, that just makes more for doubt to slaughter
I never knew he thought that, I heard you say, falling out of the van
Don't ask for his opinion, they ought to drown him in holy water
Will you remember my reply, one finger parallel to the sky?

rdo Mar 14, 2010 - 13:31	I always liked the Shins, especially after their first 2 albums. I have an embarrassing confession to make however in that I actually sold my copy of this CD before I started listening to RP. Now, hearing them regularly on RP has caused me to reach for the 10 rating for nearly every one of their songs, particularly after their most recent and truly incredible album. Which all goes to prove that Bill is a master who really knows what he is doing. [ Reply ]
jonrox Nov 08, 2009 - 23:43	Great song, the lyrics are so incrediblly off the wall. The whole album is so upbeat, and the video with the penguins is brilliant! [ Reply ]
westslope Jul 05, 2009 - 12:10	So this is the Shins, eh? Hmmm. BTW, there is some very strange formatting happening to this web page. [ Reply ]
venus_df Dec 27, 2008 - 17:37	just listened to this album again on a road trip... it's one of those perfect albums, imho. not a dud in the whole set. i love singing along. this will be a record my kids will enjoy, as one of Mom's old records that they share with their friends. at least that's how i see it. so clever and self-deprecating, and musically sound too. love it.
