Stingy Queens by Guided by Voices Lyrics
Law knows were slow boat
Row with the new technology hates you
Backs cracking
You’re mascara running
This freeze dried morning escapes you
You wanna get soaked with water
You’re condensation
With dogs dying and lost kids crying
Cross the entire nations
And all the stars fall into the sea
Are there for your anxiety
The fishing flags are at half mast
The carefree kitchens are a blast
So drink up quick, cause it's going fast
You wanted to know
You wanted to know
You wanted to know
Just when I adjusted the frequency
Stations clearly are breaking
Fire engines are chasing
Devils in all levels of beaking
Da-da-da-da-dum-da-da-da-da
I never remember the words
And they are all reeking
And hoist it up on silly strings
And prizes for the stingy queens
There crawling back with shattered heads
They’d given up and said
There no longer ours so they must be dead
You wanted to know
You wanted to know
You wanted to know
And one day when we flee
From all sweet misery
And shed our human costumes then
Revealing somewhat smaller then
Go out to work and back again
You wanted to know
You wanted to know
You wanted to know
I’ll tell you what I see
Tell you what I see
Tell you what I see
I’ll see you what I see
See you what I see
See you what I see
Row with the new technology hates you
Backs cracking
You’re mascara running
This freeze dried morning escapes you
You wanna get soaked with water
You’re condensation
With dogs dying and lost kids crying
Cross the entire nations
And all the stars fall into the sea
Are there for your anxiety
The fishing flags are at half mast
The carefree kitchens are a blast
So drink up quick, cause it's going fast
You wanted to know
You wanted to know
You wanted to know
Just when I adjusted the frequency
Stations clearly are breaking
Fire engines are chasing
Devils in all levels of beaking
Da-da-da-da-dum-da-da-da-da
I never remember the words
And they are all reeking
And hoist it up on silly strings
And prizes for the stingy queens
There crawling back with shattered heads
They’d given up and said
There no longer ours so they must be dead
You wanted to know
You wanted to know
You wanted to know
And one day when we flee
From all sweet misery
And shed our human costumes then
Revealing somewhat smaller then
Go out to work and back again
You wanted to know
You wanted to know
You wanted to know
I’ll tell you what I see
Tell you what I see
Tell you what I see
I’ll see you what I see
See you what I see
See you what I see
