Echo & The Bunnymen - Hijacked Lyrics

Echo & The Bunnymen Lyrics

"Hijacked"

We got hijacked
We got hijacked
We got hijacked
Apples for Isaac

Remember the day in
Our hand in
Unusual hatchets
The usual landing
Remember the day when
Summer turned winter
The accent on axis
Turns to splinters

We got hijacked
We got hijacked
We got hijacked
Apples for Isaac

How you gonna live that down?
You're dead before you hit the ground

We got hijacked
We got hijacked
We got hijacked
Apples for Isaac

What you gonna do
When your sacrificial lambs
Come folding in on you
In your accidental life?
What you gonna do?
What you gonna do?

What you gonna be
When the vampire bites?
You're no vampire
You're parasites
Parasites
Parasites

How you gonna live that down?
You're dead before you hit the ground
Hit the ground

I got bitten in the morning
I was itching before dawn was dawning
Never listen to the warning
Don't get bitten when the swarm is swarming

The Elza Bubba's troubling
The breakfast, I believe
The trouble, toil, and bubbling
Got me on my knees
These fleas are jumping
The fleas are jumping
The fleas are jumping
Jumping over me

How you gonna get that down?
You're dead before you hit the ground

I got bitten in the morning
I was itching before dawn was dawning
Never listen to the warning
Don't get bitten when the swarm is swarming

Bitten, bitten
Got it
Got it
We got it

We got hijacked
We got hijacked
We got hijacked
Apples for Isaac
We got hijacked
We got hijacked
We got hijacked
Apples for Isaac
