Wolf Parade - Kissing the Beehive Lyrics

While stone wither our hearts beat regular time
Well the landscapes don't
The river's flowing by
We're just drifting all night long, hands to the sky
And a captain, oh, he is never denied

I heard them singing out from shore, hands at their sides
Someone fired a rifle overhead to tear at the sky
We're just drifting all night long, here with the flies
And a captain, oh, he is never denied

As if you didn't know that it would sting
Kissing the beehive
And pissing down the mountain side you believe in the rain
As if you didn't know that it would sting
Kissing the beehive
And fucking up your finger from pushing on the ring
Sing

Well, we lay
On frigid shores of light
Leaving nothing in his bitter care, oh
Something strange
And it calls tonight
Still we leave nothing in his bitter hand, oh

I wish I could believe in you
Crashing all the weddings wearing white
We all hate the landlord, baby
It's alright, it's alright
I wish I could believe in who you are
You held your cap in the air and you called it a guitar
You put your face on the glass and you called it good cinema, oh
As if you didn't know that it would sting

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

Johnathan, Johnathan
Waterfalls are running thin you know
Here's a holy grail for you to hold
Fire in the hole, fire in the hole, fire in the hole

I'm not a wild party
I'm just in union at the show
Put the ring back on and take your husband home and
Fire in the hole, fire in the hole, fire in the hole
Oh, oh, oh, oh

And Radio, radio
Why did you leave Virginia's side
It's an alibi, we all know how the music died
Fire in the hole, fire in the hole, fire in the hole
Fire in the hole, oh, oh

Johnathan, Johnathan
Waterfalls are running thin you know
Here's a finger made from me for you to hold
Fire in the hole, fire in the hole, fire in the hole
Oh, oh, oh, oh

Estranged from the captain's light
And his bitter hand, oh, oh, oh
Estranged from the captain's light
And his bitter hand, oh, oh, oh
