Yeah Yeah Yeahs - Show Your Bones Album Lyrics

Gold lion's gonna tell me where the light is,
Gold lion's gonna tell me where the light is,
Take our hands out of control,
Take our hands out of control

Now, tell me what you saw,
Tell me what you saw,
There was a crowd of seeds,
Inside, outside,
I must have done a dozen each

It was the height I threw, the weight,
The shell was crushing you,
I've been around a few

Tell me what you saw,
I'll tell you what to...
Ooh ooh, ooh ooh, ooh ooh, ohh ohh
Ooh ooh, ooh ooh, ooh ooh, ohh ohh

Gold lion's gonna tell me where the light is,
Gold lion's gonna tell me where the light is,
Take our hands out of control,
Take our hands out of control

Outside, Inside,
This is the moon without a tide,
We'll build a fire in your eyes,
We'll build a fire when the cover's getting brighter,
Cold desire makes the moon without a tide

Tell me what you saw,
I'll tell you what to...
Ooh ooh, ooh ooh, ooh ooh, ohh ohh
Ooh ooh, ooh ooh, ooh ooh, ohh ohh

Ooh ooh, ooh ooh, ooh ooh, ohh ohh
Ooh ooh, ooh ooh, ooh ooh, ohh ohh

Lies and love
Lies, love
Bed wetting son of the great heat
It's all over me
It's all under me
The face ain't making what the mouth needs

Wonder more
Want, more
Than we did before
Try the new tease
Well, quiet you
Get over me
The shit is running and it runs deep

I'm way out
Way out

When you mean it on the inside you still can't get to me

Fits around me so tight, nuh oh
Fits around me

I'm way out
Way out

When you mean it on the inside you still can't get to me

I find it in an atlas
Or flipping over old news
Check what's in the trash bag
We're just another part of you
We're just another part of you
I beg your pardon, beg your pardon, beg your pardon
Oh-ah!

Blame me for where you are
Tell me what I gotta lose
'bout to get FANCY.
We're just another part of you
We're just another part of you
I beg your pardon, beg your pardon, beg your pardon
Oh-ah!

We read it
For three days
We read it
For three days
We read it
For three days
We read it
For three days
We read it

We were overlooked
Like a puzzle book
Dead in the eyes
Dead in the eyes
Watch us from the nooks, ah
We were overlooked
Like a puzzle book
Dead in the eyes
Dead in the eyes
Won't you find the next, ah

We're just another part of you
We're just another part of you
We're just another part of you
I beg your pardon, beg your pardon, beg your pardon
Oh-ah!

We read it
For three days
We read it
For three days
We read it
For three days
We read it
For three days

Hey!

Don't touch kid, sleep with the lights on
Touch kid, how you surprise me
Now roll kid, knock your body off!

You're something like a phenomena
Something like an astronoma
Roll kid, rock your body off!

Something like a phenomena, baby
You're something like a phenomena
Something like a phenomena, baby
You're gonna get your body off

Don't fall asleep with the motor on
She'll make you sweat in the water
Don't fall asleep with the motor on
She'll make you sweat in the water

Hot time kid
Hot time kid
It's cold under the blanket
They loved it
They shot it
The fastest ran and got it
That story that ease my
They hide it up the sleeves, my
They hide it
They hide it
They're never gonna find it

Don't fall asleep with the motor on
She'll make you sweat in the water
Don't fall asleep with the motor on
She'll make you sweat in the water

Something like a phenomena, baby
You're something like a phenomena
Something like a phenomena, baby
You're gonna get your body off
Something like a phenomena, baby
You're something like a phenomena
Something like a phenomena, baby
You're gonna get your body off

Hot time kid
Hot time kid
It's cold under the blanket
Hot time kid
Hot time kid
It's cold under the blanket

Turn yourself around, you weren't invited
Turn yourself around, you weren't invited
Good good things happen in bad towns
Good good things happen in bad towns

Runaway, runaway you want it
Runaway, runaway you want it
Runaway anyway you want it
Runaway, runaway you want it

What, what did you do to your back hips
Soft ones, curled lips can't get 'em back
Junk jump off too much time for
Old beats, cold beats, I'm just cold meat

Runaway, runaway you want it
Runaway, runaway you want it
Runaway anyway you want it
Runaway, runaway you want it

Oh all alone
I've got a call from the bear
Gonna take all his honey honey
Done, all alone
I've got a call from the bear
Gonna take all its honey honey
Done, all alone
I've got a call from the bear
Gonna take all his honey honey
Done, all alone
I've got a call from the bear
Gonna take all its honey honey

Runaway, runaway you want it
Runaway, runaway you want it
Runaway anyway you want it
Runaway, runaway you want it
What, what, what, what

Cheated by the opposite of love
Held on high from up up up above
Kept my high from the second one
Kept my eye on the first one

Now take these rings and stow them safe away
I'll wear them on another rainy day
Take these rings and stow them safe away
I'll wear them on another rainy day

Take these rings and stow them safe away
I'll wear them on another rainy day
Take these rings and stow them safe away
I'll wear them on another rainy day

Well I'm
Taka-taka-taka-taka-takin' it off
And she's
Taka-taka-taka-taka-takin' it off
And he's
Taka-taka-taka-taka-takin' it off
And we're
Taka-taka-taka-taka-takin' it off

Sometimes I think that I'm bigger than the sound
I think that I'm bigger than the sound
I think that I'm bigger than the sound
I think that I'm bigger than the sound

She'll take on high
She'll take on high

Well sometimes I think that I'm bigger than the sound
Well I think that I'm bigger than the sound
Well I think that I'm bigger than the sound
Well I think that I'm bigger than the sound

Cheated by the opposite of love
Held on high from up up up above
Kept my high from the second one
Kept my eye on the first one

Now take these rings and stow them safe away
I'll wear them on another rainy day
Take these rings and stow them safe away
I'll wear them on another rainy day

Take these rings and stow them safe away
I'll wear them on another rainy day
Take these rings and stow them safe away
I'll wear them on another rainy day

Hot cold season gonna sink in my sweat
No one isn't ever gonna make it there yet
If you can't even cope with it
Then you'll pass me by
You'll take it over
And make it mine

Fast slow living is a holding me back
Wishing that my baby never told me that
I can't even cope to make it last
Then you'll pass me by
You'll take it over
And make it mine

Then you want it a want it a want it again
Then you want it a want it a want it again
Then you want it a want it a want it again
Then you want it a want it a want it again

My dear, you've been used
I'm breaking the news
Love nearly beat us
I'm thinking like you
I'm thinking of you
Love follows near us
Can love really steer us?
Oh can it be true?
Oh can it be true?

Lost all reason after playing your game
Better quit staring cause your looking the same
I can't even cope to make a change
Then you'll pass me by
You'll take it over
And make it mine

Use me up,
Use me up,
Taper off and I'm had

My arms are all twisted,
the only thing I miss is
I messed up, I missed it,
I messed up the missing of you

It's getting to sound
like they've seen you around
with her

No mystery
No mystery
No mysteries

Everyone knows
the secretest code of mine
They'll tell all my friends
and they'll tell all my enemies too

Mystery
No mysteries
No mysteries

No mystery
No mystery
No mysteries

Take it away, Nick!

I don't even know what it's like
not to go back to you
I don't even know
who I like less,
You or me
You or me
You or me, oooh

Well it's anyone's, anyone's guess...
It's anyone's, anyone's guess...
Stress, stress
Stress, stress
Stress, stress
Stress, stress
Stress

Green shadow, water weight all over-all over me
The end will shelter me away
Can we meet again, meet and meet and meet again
Can ya fill the can if ya can't fill me?

Who ya following?
Who ya starting to move like?
Who ya falling for, who ya falling for?
Whose lies?
Who ya following, who ya falling for?
This sound's on your side

Secret blue purple pink and green right over it
Hold on 'cuz the coldest hasn't fought yet
Well if we meet again, meet and meet and meet again
Can ya catch the can if you can't will it?

How will you want something to hit with
Spinning again and again and again and again
What's your crime
What's your crime
Well how will you want
How will she fall
How will she spin
She's spinning again and again and again and again
What's your crime
What's your, what's your, what's your, what's your
What's your crime, crime, crime
What's your, what's your, what's your, what's your
What's your crime

When it's missing then you want it more
It isn't right
Turning, turning out the door
And back to this
Leave it like it was before
And let me out
Must've been the end of the story

Giving it all, giving it all away
You're gonna wake up someone
Well study it all
The wings, the crowd, your face
You're gonna end up like one

Well, trouble at home
Travel the way you say
"The road don't like me"
Travel away
Travel it all away
"The road's gonna end on me"

Man, they like me
'Cause I'm a warrior, a warrior
Stand on my feet
Dance the warrior, the warrior
Where would I be?
I'd be a warrior, a warrior

Now the strangers have caught on
And they're riding in the backseat
The river's gonna wash all
Yeah the river it spoke to me
It told me I'm small
And I swallowed it down
If I make it all
I'm a make you want me

Hey!

Trouble at home
Travel the way you say
"The road don't like me"
Travel it all, travel it all away
"The road's gonna get on me"
And I'm small
The road's gonna get on me
Well if it gets it all
The road's gonna end on me

Hey!
Hey, hey!

Like a warrior, a warrior
Dance the warrior, the warrior

I know, what I know, I know
On the car ride down
I hear it in my head real low
Turn into
The only thing I ever--
Turn into
Hope I do
Turn into you

I know, what I know, I know
That girl you found
Keeps that kind of window closed
She'll turn into
The only thing you ever--
turn into
Hope I do
Turn into you

Can't say why I kept this from you
My those quiet eyes become you
Leave it where it can't remind us
Turn this all around behind us
Oh! Well I know!
I'll fall right in to keep you out
I'd like to tell you all about it

I know, what I know, I know
This last time around
I'll hear it in my head real low
Turn into
The only thing you ever know

I know, what I know, I know
Ah yes.

Well black out
Well no time
The skin of the city is pulling real tight
Around the big head of the hot rind
The skin of the city is blushing at the sight
Of her, of her, of her, of her
It's deja vu

You got your
Big teeth with your big bite
You're ripping off the wrong tag shaking off the right
Can you sink ships with your pink thighs?
The skin of the city is shaking at the sight
Of her, of her, of her, of her
It's deja vu

Well here it is again
Can you make it to the end of the deja vu?
Well here it comes again
Can you make it to the end
Of her, of her, of her, of her, of her?

The way you look
Five beats slow
I'm wiggling

The way you look
Five beats slow
I'm wiggling

The way you look
Five beats slow
I'm wiggling

Well here it comes again
Can you make it to the end of the deja vu?
Well here it is again
Can you make it to the end of the deja vu?
Well here it comes again
Can you make it to the end
Of her, of her, of her, of her, of her?
