The Shins - Port Of Morrow[00:00:01]
Through the rain and all the clatter[00:00:40]
Under the Fremont bridge I saw a pigeon fly[00:00:44]
Fly in fear from the raptor come to take its life[00:00:48]
And as it closed in for the capture[00:00:56]
I funneled the fear through my ancient eyes[00:01:00]
To see in flight [00:01:04]
What I know are the bitter mechanics of life[00:01:06]
Under my hat it reads "the lines are all imagined"[00:01:12]
A fact of life I know to hide from my little girls[00:01:20]
I know my place amongst the bugs and all the animals[00:01:28]
And it's from these ordinary people you are longing to be free[00:01:36]
My hotel and on the TV[00:01:48]
A preacher on a stage like a buzzard cries[00:01:52]
Out a warning of phony sorrow he's trying to get a rise[00:01:56]
The cyanide of an almond[00:02:03]
Let him look at your hands get the angles right[00:02:07]
Ace of spades port of morrow life is death is life[00:02:11]
I saw a photograph: Cologne in '27[00:02:20]
And then a postcard after the bombs in '45[00:02:28]
Must've been a world of evil clowns that let it happen[00:02:35]
But now I recognize dear listeners[00:02:44]
That you were there and so was I[00:02:48]
Ah ah ah ah ah[00:02:53]
Under my hat I know the lines are all imagined[00:03:29]
A fact of life I must impress on my little girls[00:03:37]
I know my place amongst the creatures in the pageant[00:03:45]
And there are flowers in the garbage [00:03:53]
And a skull under your curls[00:03:57]
Ah ah ah ah ah[00:04:05]
