"National Anthem Of Nowhere" lyrics
"National Anthem Of Nowhere"
This is the beginning?
One, two
Words flow through your veins
Your sensual use of pain
So let's send our sailors in
'Cause they don't come back
And they don't give in
Well the sailors' drug is wine
They forget the passing time
Maybe end up on the rocks
Or drown in the arms
Of an octopus
Well they sing, but cannot save
From across the waves
Got a knife that doesn't kill
By the window sill
Sits the Diamond Lil
Stay strong
'Cause this won't last long
Last long
One more song
Stay strong
'Cause this won't last long
Last long
Just one more song

Spoon - "Everything Hits At Once" Don't say a word
The last one's still stinging
Back of my mind
I feel that phone ringing
And there is no way back from this
Everything hits at once
What we needs is just what we wants
I go...
The Walkmen - "We've Been Had" Well I'm a modern guy I don't care much for the go-go
or the retro image I see so often telling me to
keep trying maybe you'll get here someday
keep up the working, ok
I close the book on them...
Modest Mouse - "Dashboard" Well, it would've been, could've been worse than you would ever know
Oh, the dashboard melted, but we still have the radio
Oh, it should've been, could've been worse than you would ever know
Well,...
