Tape Travel Is Lonely by The Mountain Goats Lyrics

Genre: rock | Year: 2013

[Verse 1]
Peppers on the plants
Plum tomatoes ripening on the vine
Midsummer evenings on the back porch
Barbecued sweet corn, sweet white wine

[Chorus]
When the west wind comes through
It'll rip right through you
When the west wind comes through
It'll rip right through you

[Verse 2]
Bottle after bottle of the cheap stuff
Feeling two degrees north of all right
Heaven help us, heaven help us
We're all gonna die tonight

[Chorus]
When the west wind comes through
It'll rip right through you
When the west wind comes through
It'll rip right through you
[Verse 3]
Party goes on 'til the end of August
The tensions build, the air currents throb
Mosquitos suck the blood right out of my body
Why don't they finish the job

[Chorus]
When the west wind comes through
It'll rip right through you
When the west wind comes through
It'll rip right through you
