Deerhoof - Matchbook Seeks Maniac Lyrics

Deerhoof Lyrics

"Matchbook Seeks Maniac"

In a cage the quiet ruby-red bunker
Unseen boy who have control of the room
Power will need the boy
Why does power always seek the boy?
Why does power make the crazy boy more more?
"Where's the boy?" Power called
"I am here"

I will sell my soul to the devil
If I can be the top of the world
I will sell my soul to the devil
If I can be the top of the world
I will sell my soul to the devil
If I can be the top of the world
Be the top of the world

He was funny and fine, sweet, sweet good boy
Sudden lightning-like power
Changed the boy not like before, oh no

I am not a boy, I can't hold all the powers
All the power
That man lost an angel and forgot
I don't care, I have power
Heart and soul, I know what I want, oh no
I am not a boy, I can't hold all the powers
All the power

Matchbook seeks, matchbook seeks maniac
Matchbook seeks, matchbook seeks maniac
Matchbook seeks, matchbook seeks maniac

I will sell my soul to the devil
If I can be the top of the world
I will sell my soul to the devil
If I can be the top of the world
I will sell my soul to the devil
If I can be the top of the world
