New Cannonball Blues

New Cannonball Run -TV on The Radio
Hey girls hey boys no
Don't mind the noise
It's just the sound of being
Dragged ahead
It's just a pornographic annulationship
As we watch the spider's web eat itself
All this death above extinguishing
All that you've ever known
Turn your touch screens off
And start harvesting
In the seeds that your parents sew
It's got me singing blues
That hit you like a cannonball
Loud enough to break your bones
But it was written in blood before
They wrote it in stone
So sing it with me like it's your own
It's got me ****ed up and dried up
And fed up can't get up
And bleeding and crying like
I'm mad at the song
I'm a carbon copy now they got me up
Oh look at where we're going
It's got you strung out and bothered
And caught up and drowning
And feeling and shot up
And feeling you gotta run
You're a carbon copy now they got me up
Oh look at where we're going
You're getting bothered staying low
Like under four hundred blows
Makes you feel like you are
All by yourself
So when the chance comes along
Where you could help out a wrong
The bullshit's got you stuck up on the shelf
But it's heavy I'm not ready
Do you feel like you're swimming
In the notes
Well baby follow the sound
That's shooting out of your crown
There's only one way up from the floor
It's got me ****ed up and dried up
And fed up can't get up
And bleeding and crying like
I'm mad at the song
I'm a carbon copy now they got me up
Oh look at where we're going
It's got you strung out and bothered
And caught up and drowning
And feeling and shot up
And feeling you gotta run
You're a carbon copy now they got me up
Oh look at where we're going
Now gonna kick toe
Gonna run right forward
Lord not the first time
We've imposed a locked door
Oh critter fight back
It's your sole reward
Below with your fist up
Brush the dust off
Boy it's got got it's got me singing
Blues that hit you like a cannonball
And loud enough to break your bones
But it was written in blood before
They wrote it in stone
So sing it with me like it's your own
Those blues they hit you like a cannonball
Loud enough to break your bones
But wish the rising in love before
We're taking the throne
So sing it with me like it's your own
You better dust off and get up
Get ready to push up
Hey baby get ready 'cause yeah
Yeah it's gonna come
If we want to see what's possible for a
A better way right now
You better dust off and get up
Get ready to push up
Hey baby get ready 'cause yeah
Yeah it's gonna come
When the truth is spoken love's unbroken
Nothing's gonna weigh us down
