![]() Suck It And See (2011) [ larger cover art ] |
Pussyfooting setting Sun
Make a wish that weighs a tonne
There are no handles for you to hold
And no understanding where it goes
Jealousy in Technicolor
Fear by name than love by numbers
Street lamp amber wanderlust
Powder in a blunderbus
She looks as if she's blowing a kiss at me
And suddenly the sky is a scissor
Sitting on the floor with a tambourine
Crushing up a bundle of love
Don't take it so personally
You're not the only one
That time's got it in for, honey
That's where you're wrong
All the old flames fastened on
Make a wish that weighs a tonne
There are no handles you can hold
And no understanding where it goes
She looks as if she's blowing a kiss at me
And suddenly the sky is a scissor
Sitting on the floor with a tambourine
Crushing up a bundle of love
Don't take it so personally
You're not the only one
That time's got it in for, honey
That's where you're wrong
That's where you're wrong
That's where you're wrong
Oh, oh

| Seahunt (Parent's Basement) | Posted: Jun 01, 2012 - 06:32 Just saw these guys open for the Black Keys. I was really excited to see them and took my seat right before they started. The were great but so friggin loud I had to leave the pavilion after a couple of songs. I wish they wouldn't out do the band with loudness. If they sucked, I could see it just to get people's attention. But they are great. Do they really have to do that? The Black keys weren't that loud. | ||

| aspicer (Chicago, IL) | Posted: May 08, 2012 - 12:46 While good - this is such a BLATANT Echo & The Bunnymen rip off, I can't get beyond it, every time I hear the song. There are 20 Bunnymen tunes I'd play over this any day. I suppose the younger generation has never heard of The Bunnymen so think this sounds great?!.... | ||

I just now looked it up. I really loved my first impression of the line - I was going to hail it as one of the great all time song verses. Oh well. | ||
