Magnolia Songtext

von Gang of Youths

Quit honking your horns
There's five other lanes
And I'm King of them all
Faster than light
With my fists in the air
If my body's alive
Then my soul's unaware
In braving the last of
This Terrible wine
I've savoured the last
And I've kissed it goodbye
And there's no kind of right way
To do what I'll do
But I'm king of the earth
With impossible blood
On this 3rd of June

Hold on officer I know
That I'm a danger to myself
And it shows
Cause I'm on the other side of the law

There's no way tonight
As far as I know
That heaven will take me
So I'm staggering home
Show me the way
Ah, Show me the light
Hey, I'm drunk, but I'm ready
To kick some ass tonight

Still honking those horns?
Yeah, just drive around
'Cause your all being ignored
Deadpan and bright
As I flip you the bird
I'm a pain in the ass
Yeah I'm a real piece of work
Just waving my arms like
Some terrible mime
And shaking my ass
'Til they kiss it goodbye

Just show me the right things
That I didn't do
Oh, enlighten me now
With impossible love
From the former you

Just tell everyone I know
What I did I did for us
And in haste
Cause I'm terrified of dying in vain

There's no way tonight
As far as I know
That heaven will take me
So I'm staggering home
Wretched and wild
All glory and trash
Yeah, I'm drunk but I'm ready
To kick some fuckin' ass

There's no way tonight
As far as I know
That heaven will take me
So I'm staggering home
Show me the way
Ah, show me the light
Yeah, I'm drunk but I'm ready
To kick some ass tonight

There's no way tonight
As far as I know
That heaven will take me
So I'm staggering home
Fire of my loins
Ah, show me the light
Ah, light of my life
We're vastly outnumbered
Every motherfucking time
