Elbow - Little Fictions lyrics

Your rating:

[Verse 1]

A muffled battle cry across the kitchen table

A baffling contretemps that shakes the day unstable

Confessions from the cab a habit that I got from dad

The flurry of departure in a cyclone of cologne

Would often devastate the gate and hedge

And set our tiny teeth on edge

I see it in me now and pledge

To knock it on the head that's what I'll do



[Verse 2]

A muffled battle cry across the kitchen table

Bridges up portcullis down and round the Tower of Babel

I'm babbling in my dreams of blue berserkers coming at me

Eyes and tongues and rusty knives

And God almighty laughing at me

From a fat boy fishing chair

I wake to find you laughing there

It's nice to know how much you care

Decided I should spend my life with you



[Chorus]

We protect our little fictions

Like it's all we are

Little wilderness mementos

But there's only you and me here

Fire breathing

Hold tight

Waiting for the original miracle



[Verse 3]

I'm trying to focus on the issues of the day please

Your paper's upside down

The radio's in Chinese

These little tremors that are ripping through our rituals

That friction up the interaction

Emanate from quite the greatest

Thing that ever happened to

A pair of boozy bowerbirds

Like me and you

In other words

The alligator pear inside of you



[Chorus]

We protect our little fictions

When we bow to fear

Little wilderness mementos

But there's only you and me here

Fire breathing

Hold tight

Waiting for the original miracle

Fire breathing

Hold tight

Life is the original miracle



[Outro]

Let's get old

Dare you now

Mix blood with me

All in

Love is the original miracle



Let's get old

Dare you now

Mix blood with me

All in

Love is the original miracle

Love is the original miracle
