The Hold Steady
The Hold Steady - I Hope This Whole Thing Didn't Frighten You songtekst
Je score:
I heard the Cityscape Skins are kinda kicking it again Heard they finally got some discipline Running up the score and stocking up like it's World War IV I heard that some are getting sprung and some are back in You know it's always back and forth And most of them are dead And some don't even live here anymore So when I brought you back here for Christmas I didn't think we would see them I guess I should've explained There was a side of this city I didn't want you to see There's just these guys that I know, we go back pretty deep And I hope this whole thing didn't frighten you There were times that it terrified me I know what they said, I don't know if it's true I hope this whole thing didn't frighten you They're building a bunker down by the river And someone said that that's where they've been getting together They got masks for the gas, they're sleeping in their bulletproof vests I guess Shepard came out of St. Cloud with a little ideology Some new way of thinking, man A view to the future Jesus, this might be a mess For me, it was mostly the music I couldn't go to the shows with I guess I should've explained There was a side of this city I didn't want you to see There's just these guys that I know, we go back pretty deep I saw you look at his shoes, I saw you look at their teeth I could tell this whole thing kind of frightened you So you tapped me on the arm like you wanted to cruise I could tell this whole thing kind of frightened you They never care if it's true As long as they got something to prove And they always got something to prove And the room full of dudes And they cranked up the tunes And I could tell this whole thing kind of frightened you There was a side of this city I didn't want you to see There's just these guys that I know, we go back pretty deep I saw you look at his shoes, I saw you look at their teeth I could tell this whole thing kind of frightened you So you tapped me on the arm like you wanted to cruise I could tell this whole thing kind of frightened you
