Cold War Kids - Rubidoux Lyrics
So let's go deadbolt your shed doorCram your paper money snug closer than beforeChandeliers are falling in graveyard rowsAnd your eyes are shifting dials like AM radiosSnowed over river melted more last nightStill the same to shovel windshields of spidered iceYes, yes mother I mean to be baptizedSeeds that make the high ground grow and multiplyDrive to Rubidoux in the the middle of the nightBourbon and a pistol in the dash out of sightWhat did you expect? Romantic Isle of Wight?Just empty desert lightFew feet float above these Persian throw rugsAnd tuck themselves in percussion as succession wasTonight as single simple folk played themselves slowJust like talking city blues down in the hallway lowDrive to Rubidoux in the the middle of the nightBourbon and a pistol in the dash out of sightWhat did you expect? Romantic Isle of Wight?Just empty desert lightI suggest that you respect the dealAnd keep your nose out of business ofPriests and holy men, the life you have chosenIs filled with dirty fingernailsAnd lost and founds and cancelled appointments10 more avenues time to chooseAnd there's rain that'll fall down in fiveThere's 50 doors to choose from and there's many moreMany more inside inside insideAnd the nighttime's going to comeThe nighttime's going to comeDrive to Rubidoux in the the middle of the nightBourbon and a pistol in the dash out of sightWhat did you expect? Romantic Isle of Wight?Just empty desert lightDrive to Rubidoux in the the middle of the nightDrive to Rubidoux in the the middle of the nightDrive to Rubidoux in the the middle of the nightJust empty desert lightJust empty desert lightJust empty desert light
