Oh Land - Flags Lyrics
It's incredibly handsome,The teeth so whiteYou smile to the camerasAnd speak for your rightsWhile I empty the fridge and kick off the sneaksAnd pop off the lid and thenHere's what I would have doneWould have never done wrongAnd the telly's still on while…[Chorus:]You say that you did itYou came up with itYou ran to the summit waving all the flagsI would beI could beMiraculouslyTomorrow I'm comingWaving all the flagsAnd the tank's still rollingThe dust still itchMy face still nowhereWhile you're spirits' at riskAnd I empty the fridge and kick off the sneaksAnd pop off the lid and thenHere's what I would have doneWould have never done wrongAnd the telly's still on while…[Chorus:]You say that you did itYou came up with itYou ran to the summit waving all the flagsI would beI could beMiraculouslyTomorrow I'm comingWaving all the flagsIt's too easy to sit and point your finger like a hypocriteBut I'm gonna be the first to admitThat it's hard not to quitWhen you're outrun, and everything drownIn the horizonGone gone goneClimb the ladder, climb the ladderGonna show you one day I can do the walkAiming at, aiming at the top‘Cause I am a sharp shooter[Chorus:]You say that you did itYou came up with itYou ran to the summit waving all the flagsI would beI could beMiraculouslyTomorrow I'm comingWaving all the flagsDoctors' appointment at 10:30Remember to refill PercocetGet milkCucumber, tomato1 six packMatches2pm meeting Maja for the Uruguay gameCall FarraDo the laundryTax returns…and then maybe save the planet!
