Dear Sons and Daughters of Hungry Ghosts Songtext

von Wolf Parade

I got a hand
So I got a fist
So I got a plan
It's the best that I can do
Now we say, it's in God's hands
But God doesn't always have the best goddamn plans, does he?
I ain't quite the beauty
Who holds up two guns and shoots at the pretty, pretty view
And, God, I keep thinking things - hunters and kings
To block out the view
I gotta get a new bell to ring
A new song to sing
A steady hand to ring
A readiness of things
A new plan to bring to the people
People I can trick 'em into thinking anything
Ya-ho
And you rust it just right in the light, it's gold, it's golden
Ya-ho
I got watering holes in my hands
I'm a digger of holes in the land of holes
Ya-ho
It's the easiest way
Ya-oh
It's the easiest way
Ya-ho
It's the easiest way
Ya-ho
It's the easiest way
Hey
So I go

La la la la la la
La la la la la la
La la la la la la
I got water and I got holes, oh
La la la la la la
Sons and daughters of hungry ghosts, oh
La la la la la la
I got water and I got holes, oh
La la la la la la
The sons and daughters of hungry ghosts, oh, go, go
La la la la la la
I got water and I got holes, oh
La la la la la la
Sons and daughters of hungry ghosts, oh, go, go
I got a hand (La la la la la la)
So I got a fist
So I got a plan, it's the best I can do
Say, is it in God's hands? (La la la la la la)
But God doesn't always have the best goddamn plans, does he?
Say, la la la la la la
I can't believe in the guns, I can't believe in the view
I sing, say, say (La la la la la la)
I can't believe in those hunters and kings
Ya-oh
Say, la la la la la la
I got a new plan to bring
I got a new song to sing, it goes
La la la la la la
I got a new plan to bring and you know
Ya-ho
It's the easiest way (La la la la la la)
Ya-ho
It's the easiest way (La la la la la la)
Ya-ho
It's the easiest way (La la la la la la)
Ya-ho
It's the easiest way (La la la la la la)
Hey
So I go
