TANGK Lyrics
IDEA 01
Upside down house to a broken home
Sister's waving arms not even grown
There's a rag in a bucket
And your father couldn't pay his loans
Or something
Your uncle ran ten streets just to snatch his phone
Or something
Your mother swang like your life depended
It did
These are the things you lost in the fire
Or something
These are the things you lost in the fire
The fire
The fire
The fire
The fire
The fire
Gift Horse
Sinew exploding from chrome hooves
Where we're going, we don't need glue
Can he run in a tutu?
He looks a little long in the gold tooth
Watch-watch my-my steed-steed go-go far-far
Watch-watch my-my steed-steed go-go far-far
Watch-watch my-my steed-steed go-go far-far
Watch my steed go far
(Go) look at him go
Look at him go
Look at him go
Look at him go
Look at him go
Look at him go
Look at him go
My steed sees how dreams are made
He's my dream like I just got paid
No joy ride fee, it's free today
We don't care what the people say
'Cause he moves like a generator
He puts the foot down and see you later
Somebody call up the undertaker
Handing out passes to meet your maker
See-see my-my steed-steed go-go far-far
See-see my-my steed-steed go-go far-far
See-see my-my steed-steed go-go far-far
See my steed go far
(Go) look at him go
Look at him go
Look at him go
(Look at him go)
Look at him go
Look at him go
Look at him go
My baby, she-she's so raw
I give her love, and she gives me more
Ask us to kneel and bow to the floor
She says, "No" and she asked, "What for?"
My baby, she-she's so strong
She talk me straight when I'm doing wrong
Ask us to sing your empire songs
She laughs, tells you where I'm from
My baby, she-she's so great
I wake up grateful every day
My baby is beautiful
All is love and love is all
F*ck the king
He ain't the king, she's the king
(Go) look at him go
Look at him go
Look at him go
Look at him go
Look at him go
Look at him go
Look at him go
POP POP POP
Freudenfreude
Joy on joy
Cheerleader
Happy boy
Strong like bull
Vulnerable
Keep my people up
That's my tool
Freudenfreude
Happy boy
Top seeder
Lucky koi
Heat seeker of a missile smile
Don't let pricks take your inch to a mile
Freudenfreude
Bada bing (bada bing)
She's a freight train, man
Watch her swing
Holy water eyes
Soft skin
Bricks and morter
Horizon begins
Sunbeams, oh, sunbeams like God from your face
Su-sunbeams, oh, sunbeams like God from your face
Gold sugar
Hues bright when the salt is purer
Hold tight (hold tight)
Hold me to the Bunsen burner
And let the waves crash in
Sunbeams, oh, sunbeams like God from your face
Su-sunbeams, oh, sunbeams like God from your face
Freudenfreude
Dopamine
Dance with time, my boy
I'm a fiend
Watch the night swing by
Hold the scene
Hold a flame, my boy
I'm a dream
Freudenfreude
Hot like fire
Docile prophet puts a tune to my smile
Send it up like smoke to the sky
Drink my water 'til the river runs dry
Freudenfreude
Sister's love
Hold the sword so I'm soft to the touch
Hold the phone, hold the clutch, watch me fly
Hold the mirror to my Mother's crying eyes
Here's the sunbeams like God from your face
Su-sunbeams, oh, sunbeams like God from your face
Roy
If I pose enough threat
If I pull on the thread
Will you try?
If I open the tear
With my best stare
Will you buy?
If I smash down the walls
If I ignore your calls
Will you believe?
If I choke out the sun
If I blister the hum
Will you breathe?
Am I almost there
With my death stare?
Will you kneel?
I am baby's breath
If dance with death
Will you kneel?
I'm sorry for the things that I said
I danced 'til my feet bled
I'm never gonna die
Ooh, take the posers instead
The narcs, the fakes and the feds
I'm gonna fly
Baby, baby, baby
Baby, baby, babe
Baby, baby, baby
I'm a smart man
But I'm dumb for you
If I see myself
If I give 'em hell
Will you fly?
If I cut off the head
Of the hand that fed
Are you mine?
If I pummel and maim
If I piss up the drain
Will you hear?
If I pull at your hair
Scream bloody air
Come near
If I cut at the clef
If I rip at its neck
Will you cheer?
I am baby's breath
If dance with death
Will you kneel?
I'm sorry for the things that I said
I danced 'til my feet bled
I'm never gonna die
Ooh, take the posers instead
The narcs, the fakes and the feds
I'm gonna fly
Baby, baby, baby
Baby, baby, babe
Baby, baby, baby
I'm a smart man
But I'm dumb for you
Baby, baby, baby
I said, baby, baby, baby
Baby, baby, baby
A Gospel
Lay me down on the floor
I'll take the news better
I'm already torn
In the shadow of your own
I can hear it in your tone
Delete my number
I'm no more
Ignore my eyes, babe
They're just sore
In the shadow of your own
I can hear it in your tone
I wore your sweater
You didn't laugh
I guess your girl was right
We weren't meant to last
I know you better
I'm your half
Just tell me, darling
And I'll be your past
You stole my Northy
I didn't laugh
I guess my girl was right
We weren't meant to last
I know you better
I'm your half
Just tell me, darling
And I'll be your past
Dancer
Hold the phone
Hip to hip, cheek to cheek
Push me away like I'm Lucifer
So to speak
My focus is on the cocoa butter
Running down your neck and the sweat
Feet touch, brush hands, feather's ache
We can swing if you prefer
So to speak
My breath moves your hair in a round at a glance
Like a pirouette and the sweat
I give myself to you
As long as you move
On the floor
Dancers, hip to hip (collide us as we work it out)
Dancing cheek to cheek
Dancers, hip to hip (collide us as we work it out)
Dancing cheek to cheek
Dancers, hip to hip (collide us as we work it out)
Dancing cheek to cheek
Dance, oh dance, goddamn dance, woo (collide us as we work it out)
Shoulders back, chest out, I'm poised
Like a goddamn ape
So to speak
I can taste the mood in my mouth
Like particles of punch drunk love
And the sweat
Bold moves, ice rink, lines cut
From the moves they make
So to speak
Somebody tell me where I go
Like a goddamn homing dove
And the sweat
I give myself to you
As long as we move
On the floor
Dancers, hip to hip (collide us as we work it out)
Dancing cheek to cheek
Dancers, hip to hip (collide us as we work it out)
Dancing cheek to cheek
Dancers, hip to hip (collide us as we work it out)
Dancing cheek to cheek
Dance, oh dance, goddamn dance (collide us as we work it out)
Cut waves, make change
Crop circles in my cage
Cut waves, make change
Crop circles in my cage
Cut waves, make change (collide us as we work it out)
Crop circles in my cage
I'm a dancer, you're a dancer
Let's dance, woo
Grace
He saw you at the same time as I did
Across the bar with your whisky and coke
Just like a masterpiece standing there
With your vintage clothes and your sixties hair
I saw you glance straight into his eyes
Am I allowed to be jealous of the way that you look at him so much better than you look at me
I'll do the maths if I could have a calculator
Scientific, if you please
So I'll meet you on the corner
The corner of Chaffinch Drive
And I'll see what I've been missing
That overwhelming, adoring look in your eye
You looked up at the skies as you realised
That he is nothing compared to what you've always wanted
But you had it
You could almost reach out and grab it
So take me away to that special place where you played when you were cold and heartbroken
You better start licking all of your wounds now they're open
So I'll meet you on the corner
The corner of Chaffinch Drive
And I'll see what I've been missing
That overwhelming, adoring look in your eye
I'll meet you on the corner
The corner of Chaffinch Drive
And I'll see what I've been missing
That overwhelming, adoring look in your eye
Where do you go when you feel alone?
Where do you go when there's no one home?
Where do you go when you feel alone?
Where do you go when there's no one home?
Where do you go when you feel alone?
Where do you go when there's no one home?
Where do you go when you feel alone?
Where do you go when there's no one home?
I'll meet you on the corner
The corner of Chaffinch Drive
I'll see what I've been missing
That overwhelming, adoring look in your eye
I'll meet you on the corner
The corner of Chaffinch Drive
I'll see what I've been missing
That overwhelming, adoring look in your eye
Hall & Oates
It feels like Hall and Oates is playing in my ear
Every time my man's near
He always checks to see a coast is clear
He knows I hold my man dear
I love my man, I love
It feels like Hall and Oates is playing in my heart
I've loved my man from the very start
He turned forgiveness into an art
You'll never tear us apart
I love my man, I love
My man, I love my man
It feels like Hall and Oates is playing from above
Every time he shows me love
They say we really love each other
I say, it's simple like duh duh
I love my man, I love
My man, I love my man
It feels like Hall and Oates is playing just for me
Ah-ah, Otis and Kiki
Go have a word to your mother
I really, really love my brother
I love my man, I love
My man, I love my man
I was walking all alone
A preacher with no choir
And then you came into my world
And set it on fire
I love my man, I love
My man, I love my man
