THE ARCADE FIRE LYRICS - The Woodlands National Anthem

"The Woodlands National Anthem"



I guess we'll have to move

The neighborhood is on to us



Let's join the little babe's

Throwin' rocks in front of us



Riding on my bicycle

I pass my sister on a bus

Let's take the country road before our parents send for us



Trees keep fallin' at my feet

I guess it's time to build a boat

Make a raft of our bodies

Do you think that it'll float?

What I said was not a joke,

But you just licked the envelope

I'm tired of dating, let's elope

But you just licked the envelope



Three cheers for my parents,

Lonely failed experiments!

Three cheers for my parents,

Lonely failed experiments!



Don't you dare blame my parents

I'm the only failed experiment

Don't you dare blame your parents

You're the only failed experiment

Don't you dare blame your grandparents

Mom's the only failed experiment

Don't you dare blame your grandparents

Dad's the only failed experiment

Don't blame God

Just blame God

Don't blame God
