"Midas" lyrics
"Midas"
The voice inside the suit came crawling down the telephone
Somewhere between a chessboard and a nursery rhyme
I heard the rattlesnake shaking in his invitation
And the whites of his knuckles on the other end of the line
Midas, yeah
Midas, lalalalalala
Midas, yeah
Midas
Stepped inside his office and the whole place seemed to shiver
He said "Come a little closer, boy
Come on don't be shy"
I searched to find the fracture in his tombstone facelift
And he fixed me with the coldness of the kingdom in his eyes
Midas, yeah
Midas, lalalalalala
Midas, yeah
Midas
He said "come on, kid
You think we got a deal, yeah?"
Threw his head back like a pelican and straightened his tie, hahaha
Each time you're asking, you're making me kinda nervous
And with a click of his silvered fingers I was falling through the sky
Midas, yeah
Midas, lalalalalala
Midas, yeah
Midas
Midas
Midas
Midas
Midas

There's a little place I've found
By my work...
NewDad - "Angel" You're sweet, but I'm sick
I hurt myself for kicks
I'm lost but you're found
Both feet firmly on the ground
And I'm so high, but still so low
I think I'm losing my mind
You're an angel
I'm just...
Elbow - "Balu" Oh, my big Balu, with my wine I pine for you
My days are shapeless now
I'm something of a sacred cow
But sunrise on those gum balls bouncing around Manhattan

And...
The K's - "Heart On My Sleeve" Oh someone call me a doctor, or call me a nurse
Oh I know it ain't real, but I swear it still hurts
It's like everyone round here wants to observe
Me be punched to the pavement or kicked the curb
So...
BODEGA - "Tarkovski" (Take me, take me)
You said, "Take me to the zone" (Take me to the zone)
You said you want a rail ride, know you really don't
Pay me with a time loan (Take me to the zone)
You said you want a ride...
