Sing Them Songs Songtext
von Shapes and Sizes

In these times, I′m a firefighter
Putting out your love, hosing it down, hosing it down
And your love is on fire, and it's hot, so I hose it down

Night dive
Why
On my bed
Where once we slept in?
And now I′m bleeding
Like a woman
My lead feet lead me backwards to the waist
Where the boys are drinking
And hidden under a pile
And pushing matter
And giving like Uncle
Uncle, Uncle, I said, "Uncle"
Uncle, Uncle, I said, "Uncle"
Uncle, Uncle, I said, "Uncle"


Sing them songs
I know you sing them songs
My deaf ears will not play them
Sing them songs
Sing them songs
I know you sing them songs
My deaf ears will not play them
Sing them songs

My soft skull
And my mushy brain
And my deaf ears
Are falling out the same

If North America's the new third world, then I don't want to miss
If North America′s the new third world, then I don′t want to miss
If North America's the new third world, then I don′t want to miss
If North America's the new third world, then I don′t want to miss

Sing them songs
I know you sing them songs
My deaf ears will not play them
Sing them songs
Sing them songs
I know you sing them songs
My deaf ears will not play them
Sing them songs
