Calm Down Songtext

von Les Savy Fav

The city's made of stone
The citizens are glass
The citizens are tiny
But the city's oh so vast
Our shoes are from the future
But our feet are from the past
We try to drag them forward
But the body holds us back
And I can't calm down

Calm down calm down calm down calm down
I can't calm down how can I calm down now
Calm down calm down calm down calm down
I can't calm down how can I calm down now
Calm down calm down calm down calm down
I can't calm down how can I calm down now
Calm down calm down calm down calm down
I can't calm down how can I calm down now

This city is a prison and this room feels like a cell
Let's sharpen up our bed springs and we'll send ourselves to hell
The warden feeds us poison so I guess it's just as well
That I can't calm down

I can't calm down how can I calm down now

Why must we make the same mistakes
That we have made since ancient days

Why must we make the same mistakes
That we have made since ancient days
Why must we make the same mistakes
That we have made since ancient days
Why must we make the same mistakes
That we have made since ancient days
Calm down calm down calm down calm down
Calm down calm down calm down calm down right now
