Straw Dog — текст песни (Something Corporate)

Staring into the intersection, she thinks that she can fly and she might
Holding on in a new direction, she`s gonna try it tonight
The closer I get to feeling, the further that I`m feeling from alright
The more I step into the sun, the more I step out of the light

Jessica is covered inablanket on a Sunday porch
Thinking of the weekends she would party in the city
She doesn`t have a flame, she`d prefer to burn out like a torch
If she gets nowhere in life, at least she know`s she pretty

She said, Hey, now, the straw dog`s out in the street
Hey now, there`s chemicals in the clouds
Hey now, they`re calling the police
They won`t get to us, anyhow.

The moon is shining now and shadows are what`s left of all the noise
Simple silhouettes and cutouts as if we had the choice
He listens closely now, swears that he can hear a voice
That`s calling him and saying

Hey, now, the straw dog`s out in the street
Hey now, there`s chemicals in the clouds
Hey now, they`re calling the police
They won`t get to us, anyhow.

What does it take to be a superhero in our world?
Make no mistake that these villains always get the girl
We can escape, and then we`d skate away from all of this
And no one ever does.

She`s saying Hey, now, the straw dog`s out in the street
Hey now, there`s chemicals in the clouds
Hey now, they`re calling the police
They won`t get to us, anyhow.
