Strawberry Mansion Songtext
von The Menzingers

Hurtling towards the Earth, set the atmosphere on fire
And then we′ll put another notch in the kuiper
Climb down from the trees to die from a disease
Brought back from the dead by the liars

I don't mind
I′ll stay behind

Transmission in static, the silent monastic
Exiled to an island of plastic
Waiting on translation, the fool's coronation
A permanent summer vacation

I don't mind
I′ll stay behind


Set a course for the sun
Into bittersweet oblivion
The time has come, the rain is gone
Back to hell where we belong

The games we′ve been playing, the real estate's changing
The mountainsides and rivers to lake beds
Concrete to dust, iron to rusted
Statues reign over the ocean

I don′t mind
I'll stay behind

Set a course for the sun
To bittersweet oblivion
The time has come, the rain is gone
Back to hell where we belong

Set a course for the sun
To bittersweet oblivion
The time has come, the rain is gone
Back to hell where we belong
