The National - Alligator Lyrics
The National - Abel Lyrics
My mind's not right
My mind's not right
My mind's not right
My mind's not right
The National - Secret Meeting Lyrics
I think this place is full of spies, I think they're onto me
Didn't anybody, didn't anybody tell you
Didn't anybody tell you how to gracefully disappear in a room
The National - Baby, We'll Be Fine Lyrics
All night I lay on my pillow and pray
For my boss to stop me in the hallway
Lay my head on his shoulder and say
"Son, I've been hearing good things"
The National - Lit Up Lyrics
My bodyguard shows her revolver to anyone who asks
And yeah, she comes to attention when you come up to me too fast
For a little while you'll be here, the only good part of me
For a little while you'll be here
The National - Looking For Astronauts Lyrics
We're out looking for astronauts
Looking for astronauts
We're out looking for astronauts
Looking for astronauts
The National - Val Jester Lyrics
Build a fire for Val Jester
Build a room for your love
Take your time when you tell her
How she lives in your blood
The National - City Middle Lyrics
Karen, take me to the nearest famous city middle
Where they hang the lights
Where it's random and it's common versus common, la, la, la
Karen, take me to the nearest famous city middle
The National - All The Wine Lyrics
I'm put together beautifully, big wet bottle in my fists, big wet rose in my teeth
I'm a perfect piece of ass like every Californian
So tall I take over the street with high-beams shining on my back
A wingspan unbelievable, I'm a festival, I'm a parade
The National - Daughters Of The Soho Riots Lyrics
I have your good clothes in the car
So cut your hair so no one knows
I have your dreams and your teeth marks
And all my fingernails are painted
The National - Friend Of Mine Lyrics
Hey, where the hell are you?
You don't call me back, John
Won't you come here and stay with me?
Why don't you come here and stay with me?
The National - Karen Lyrics
Karen, I'm not taking sides, I don't think I'll ever do that again
I'll end up winning and I won't know why
I'm really trying to shine here, I'm really trying
You're changing clothes and closing windows on me all the time
The National - Mr. November Lyrics
This is nothing like it was in my room in my best clothes
Trying to think of you
This is nothing like it was in my room in my best clothes
The National - The Geese Of Beverly Road Lyrics
We'll take ourselves out in the street
And wear the blood in our cheeks like red roses
We'll go from car to sleeping car and whisper in their sleeping ears
We were here, we were here, we'll set off the geese of Beverly road
