"Firefly On The 4th Of July" lyrics

U.S. Girls Lyrics

"Firefly On The 4th Of July"

The world's a dream we've all unseen
Atomic and evergreen
We used to know our machines
We used to keep our motors clean

Found the X that marks the spot
Where the metal's cold before it heats the lot
Hope that dream lands right on me

Nuclear fear from the rear
It spoils the atmosphere
Like a tune
A hit so big
That no one wants to dance to its music

We've been eating in the dark
You've been sitting on my fork
We're both hurt and can't agree

Firefly on the 4th of July
Thank God I was looking good when I saw you
Firefly on the 4th of July
Thank God I was looking good when I saw you

Will you drive me to the store?
I'm just laying here divided by my sons
Will no one come and find me and save me
