"Huddled" lyrics
"Huddled"
The endless sound of shutting down your spiraling notebook factory
Give back your inkwell of egos, system's leaking
Spare you your attention to the endless dance recital
Give to you your lesson as you're barely speaking
And huddled
Having won, and do you have a light?
You can't know this
Kiss like morphine
Give to them your tired, your poor, your huddled masses
Great police who guard the gates, King Richard and the Dragging Asses
Who was our first president, and who will be the last?
Are you yet convinced when you are sleeping in class?
And huddled
Through the smoke, your lover comes at last
Through escaping
Not having given in
To one eye winking
And straying from the garden through battle-scarred terrain
And to the witch's son, to you, he will explain
His photos, patients, synthetic sync technique
He's getting warmer every word he speaks
And inundated with his hair dye streaks

Television - "See No Evil" What I want I want now
And it's a whole lot more than "anyhow"
I want to fly, fly up a fountain
I want to jump, jump, jump, jump a mountain
I understand all (I see no)
Destructive urges (I see no)...
The Replacements - "Androgynous" Here comes Dick, he's wearing a skirt
Here comes Jane, y'know she's sporting a chain
Same hair, revolution
Same build, evolution
Tomorrow who's gonna fuss
And they love each other so
Androgynous...
Husker Du - "Could You Be The One?" Could you be the one they talk about?
Hiding inside, behind another door?
Is it only happiness you want?
Does wanting a feeling matter any more?
It doesn't mean that much to me
Sometimes I don't...
Japandroids - "The House That Heaven Built" When the soul of the city was laid to rest
And the night forgotten and left for dead
I happened at a house built of living light
Where everything evil disappears and dies
When they love you and they...
