Shins, The - Turn A Square текст песни

She shone up bright like a knife

Wearing tennis shorts made of stripes

Hand in hand

To the grass we got it right (got it right right right)

Just a glimpse of an ankle and I

react like it's 1805

Swim to the poles just to find the right satellite

It'll take all my strength to give up

But you all know I've tried

So forget about it girl

My head's like a kite

When such a creature I sight



To town!

Where your feet leave not prints on the ground

Have I left my home just to whine in this microphone?

It gets worse every time that we talk

Can't afford to be just one in a flock

But that's your lot

When you're after such a well made lock

Who was classically trained to give up



And my friends know I've tried

So forget about it girl

Even I don't know why

I can't just stay the course

Keep my hands on the wheel

Our detractors were right

My head's like a kite

All my thoughts run astray

and I'm a walking cliche

When such a creature I sight



I can't just stay the course

Keep my hands on the wheel

Our detractors were right

My head's like a kite
