Singin' in Tongues Songtext

von Bleu

I, 2

I was stumblin' down first avenue
Feelin' second class crash from my head to my boots
Crushed like a can of empty promises
Tryin' hard not to spew some sorry excuse
But, hey

As I rounded the corner on 2 St. Marks
Saw a guy who looked like Hendrix and sang like a shark
Parting words of hole like he hadn't eaten in days
But I couldn't understand a single thing he sprayed

Somehow he's grasping me up inside
And drowned out the squeals of my rusty Mac
Well, he looked at me hard like he knew what I needed
As the gibberish cleared, I could hear him screamin'

Oh, don't worry
Oh, don't worry
Oh, don't you worry, son

I'm just singin' in tongues
La, la, la, la, la
Lo, lo, lo, lo, lo
La, la, la, la, la

I'm just singin' in tongues
La, la, la, la, la
Lo, lo, lo, lo, lo
La, la, la, la, la

Cleaned up my act just enough to get movin'
Took a while but each mile seemed like it was slowly improvin'
In the middle of the middle, I sprung the radio down
To find nothing but static in that empty mound

I needed anything to fill my bottomless line and
That radio's cappin' out my need to fill silence
But just when I thought I'd rather run the car off the road
I heard a voice through the wire like a preachers moan

Hummin', oh, don't worry
Oh, don't worry
Oh, don't you worry, son

I'm just singin' in tongues
La, la, la, la, la
Lo, lo, lo, lo, lo
La, la, la, la, la

I'm just singin' in tongues
La, la, la, la, la
Lo, lo, lo, lo, lo
La, la, la, la, la

I finally found one place, I think I lost my demons
But sometimes in the distance, I still hear them screamin'
I can't quite make out those infernal whispers
So I just pretend they're singin'

Oh, don't worry
Oh, don't worry
Oh, don't you worry, son

I guess I lost a couple marbles in my big haste
So if you can understand me

Oh, don't worry
Oh, don't worry
Oh, don't you worry, son

I'm just singin' in tongues
La, la, la, la, la
Lo, lo, lo, lo, lo
La, la, la, la, la

I'm just singin' in tongues
La, la, la, la, la
Lo, lo, lo, lo, lo
La, la, la, la, la

I'm just singin' in tongues
La, la, la, la, la
Lo, lo, lo, lo, lo
La, la, la, la, la

I'm just singin' in tongues
La, la, la, la, la
Lo, lo, lo, lo, lo
La, la, la, la, la
