We know that we could sell your magazines[00:00:38]
If only you would give your life to literature just[00:00:41]
Don't read Jane Eyre[00:00:43]
Work on your algebra[00:00:44]
And stand out in the rain[00:00:45]
And give yourself to simple pleasures but[00:00:46]
Never play card games[00:00:48]
Meanwhile back at home[00:00:50]
Not in communist Russia[00:00:51]
Well only on my headphones[00:00:53]
We plot our march onto the town hall[00:00:55]
And if we'd take prisoners or simply simper at those fools[00:00:57]
Please don't tell me to do the math[00:01:06]
Please don't tell me to do the math[00:01:12]
Tonight we're gonna smash this place up[00:01:31]
And then we're gonna deck it out with fairy lights till[00:01:33]
We are content[00:01:36]
And then we'll maybe drown in Dewey decimal[00:01:37]
But leave our shoes off at the door 'cause[00:01:39]
That was the point[00:01:41]
Of us at home with the moon[00:01:42]
Pouring through the curtains working on our attitude[00:01:44]
Towards the second hand book shop employees[00:01:47]
Reading the inscriptions that were never meant for their eyes[00:01:50]
Please don't tell me to do the math[00:01:59]
Please don't tell me to do the math[00:02:04]
Please don't tell me to do the math[00:02:30]
Please don't tell me to do the math[00:02:36]
I'm stitching up each one of your pockets[00:02:41]
So when we are together you'll maybe look a little less bored[00:02:43]
I'm sticking your fingers into sockets[00:02:46]
To kick start your little heart and maybe sleep a tiny bit more[00:02:49]
Oh maybe we should read more into the books that we adore[00:02:52]
Perhaps we should drink less vitamin c[00:02:55]
And now I'm shouting out in capital letters[00:02:57]
I will throw you high fives if you keep your own secrets[00:02:59]
