Los Campesinos! - We Are Beautiful, We Are Doomed[00:00:02]
By the light of the LED display of the VCR recorder[00:00:32]
You kiss my neck, I whisper in your ear:"This is my downfall"[00:00:36]
As you squint and you grimace[00:00:39]
We both know your heart's not in it[00:00:40]
In the glow of a thousand fireflies[00:00:43]
In a travelodge en-suite[00:00:45]
They think the future's bright as halogen[00:00:47]
We know it's pretty bleak[00:00:48]
And I'm trying to be sexy[00:00:49]
Biting at the air that falls in front of me.[00:00:51]
The telegrams are more and more less detailed by the day[00:01:13]
And all the characters are strangers[00:01:16]
And the pubs have different names[00:01:18]
I tell a joke, I'd like to meet them[00:01:19]
But they'll loathe me and I'd hate them back[00:01:21]
Absence makes the heart grow fonder[00:01:24]
Fondness makes the absence longer[00:01:26]
Length loses my interest[00:01:28]
I'm a realist, I'm insatiable[00:01:29]
So, ten days until I fly[00:01:30]
But that was before your reply[00:01:32]
You said, "He got his teeth fixed"[00:01:37]
I'm gonna break them[00:01:41]
I've got a heart on fire[00:01:43]
You said, "He's got his sights set"[00:01:47]
I'm getting to ya[00:01:50]
I've got fists on fire[00:01:53]
And you feel terrified at the thought of being left behind[00:01:57]
Of losing everybody, the necessity of dying[00:02:02]
Oh, we kid ourselves, there's future in the f**king[00:02:08]
But there is no f**king future[00:02:13]
I'm just practising my accents,[00:02:16]
Picking at old sutures[00:02:19]
I taught myself the only way to vaguely get along in love[00:02:22]
Is to like the other slightly less than you get in return[00:02:24]
I keep feeling like I'm being under-cut[00:02:27]
Charlotte says it's more constructive than the one in Canada[00:02:32]
When you got drunk, ate loads of crisps[00:02:35]
And threw up by a football pitch[00:02:37]
I know it is, and really that's what worries me[00:02:38]
I feel like I should hurt[00:02:40]
You said, "He's got his teeth fixed"[00:02:46]
I'm gonna break them[00:02:49]
I've got a heart on fire[00:02:51]
He said he's got his sights set[00:02:55]
I'm getting to ya[00:02:58]
I've got fists on fire[00:03:01]
I cannot emphasise enough that my body is a[00:03:05]
Badly designed, poorly put together vessel[00:03:07]
Harbouring these diminishing, so-called vital organs[00:03:10]
Hope my heart goes first, I HOPE MY HEART GOES FIRST![00:03:13]
And we are beautiful, we are doomed[00:03:19]
