Turn A Square — текст песни (THE SHINS)

She shone up bright like a knife

Wearing tennis shorts made of stripes

Hand in hand to the grass and we got it right

Got it nice, nice, nice

Just a glimpse of an ankle and I

React like it`s 1805

And I`d swim to the poles just to find the right satellite

It`ll take all of my strength to give up



But you all know I tried

So forget about it, girl

My head`s like a kite

When such a creature I sight



To town!

Where you`re feet leave no prints on the ground

Have I left my home just to whine in this microphone?

It gets worse every time that we talk

Can`t afford to be just one in a flock

But that`s your lot

When you`re after such a well-made lock

Who was classically trained to give up



And my friends know I tried

So forget about it, girl

Even I don`t know why

I can`t just stay the course

Keep my hands on the wheel

Our detractors were right

My head`s like a kite

All my thoughts run astray

And I`m a walking cliche

When such a creature I sight
