Selling Rope (Swan Dive to Estuary) - Los Campesinos![00:00:00]

As I swan dive into the estuary,[00:00:29]

The birds do not flinch at my fall[00:00:35]

They perch in the rafters, before,[00:00:41]

During after they do not notice me at all[00:00:44]

As I float down into the estuary,[00:00:51]

Wind cases my body in cool[00:00:57]

I smell petrol fumes,[00:01:02]

See the smoke rise in plumes[00:01:05]

The earth is one big fireball[00:01:08]

The earth is one big fireball[00:01:13]

Anecdote, lie[00:01:20]

My own alibi[00:01:22]

I've been telling jokes[00:01:25]

Piled notes high[00:01:30]

My own alibi[00:01:33]

I've been selling rope[00:01:36]

As I break the film of the estuary,[00:01:43]

The seaweed submerges my form[00:01:49]

No passing cars stop, not a single jaw drops,[00:01:54]

As my wallet and keys sink before.[00:01:59]

A splash all I left in the world[00:02:05]

Anecdote, lie[00:02:11]

My own alibi[00:02:14]

I've been telling jokes[00:02:16]

Piled notes high[00:02:22]

My own alibi[00:02:24]

I've been selling rope[00:02:27]

Once held a magpie in the palm of my hand[00:02:35]

And the blood in our veins flowed faster,[00:02:39]

As I'd planned[00:02:43]

Got a heart full of love and a head full of more[00:02:45]

But a fist full of threads from the seams[00:02:50]

And I saw a smile in that beak.[00:02:57]

Anecdote, lie[00:03:03]

My own alibi[00:03:05]

I've been telling jokes[00:03:08]

Piled notes high[00:03:13]

My own alibi[00:03:16]

I've been selling rope[00:03:19]

Oh I was a bird right then,[00:03:24]

One day I will be again[00:03:27]

I've been telling jokes while selling rope to you[00:03:29]

Oh I was a bird right then,[00:03:35]

One day I will be again[00:03:38]

I've been telling jokes while selling rope to you[00:03:40]

Oh I was a bird right then,[00:05:15]

One day I will be again[00:05:18]

I've been telling jokes while selling rope to you[00:05:20]

Oh I was a bird right then,[00:05:26]

One day I will be again[00:05:28]

I've been telling jokes while selling rope to you[00:05:31]

There's no ticker tape,[00:05:35]

No golden gate[00:05:37]

No carnival and no parade[00:05:39]

Just one, one for sorrow[00:05:41]

There's no ticker tape,[00:05:46]

No golden gate[00:05:48]

No carnival and no parade[00:05:49]

Just one, one for sorrow[00:05:52]
