Impossible Request Songtext

von Clap Your Hands Say Yeah

Go through the nights and wasted days
I wouldnt put anyone in my place
To see what I had in me
I cannot think, I cannot sleep
I get my honorary degree into the middle of the playground
And it was a stranger who took me away
Either way, Im at the mercy of a stranger again
Who took me away

I did not argue with the law
The pretty lies will get you far
But you see, you cannot stay there
See a man upon the beach
Hes reaching everlasting peace
But he cant find words for self
There was a scene pulling me here
Either way, Im at the mercy of a stranger again
Who took me away

I know you dont know
Im asking too much
Got to ask an impossible request
Impossible request

Please dont ask me where Im going
Ill tell you again Ill never go
Please dont ask me where Im going
Ill tell you again Ill never go
Please dont ask me where Im going
Ill tell you again Ill never go
Please dont ask me where Im going
Ill tell you again Ill never go
