Regina Spektor - Genius Next Door |
| [00:05.89] |
|
| [00:21.65] |
Some said the local lake had been enchanted |
| [00:26.89] |
Others said it must have been the weather |
| [00:32.09] |
The neighbors were trying to keep it quiet |
| [00:37.23] |
But I swear that I could hear the laughter |
| [00:42.40] |
So they joke, and they nicknamed it "the porridge" |
| [00:46.93] |
Cause over night that lake had turned as thick as butter |
| [00:51.64] |
|
| [00:53.04] |
But the local kids would still go swimming, drinking |
| [00:58.08] |
Saying that to them it doesn't matter |
| [01:01.47] |
|
| [01:02.18] |
If you just hold in your breath |
| [01:07.79] |
'Til you come back up in full |
| [01:13.91] |
Hold in your breath |
| [01:18.23] |
'Til you've thought it through |
| [01:21.16] |
You fool |
| [01:22.96] |
|
| [01:24.31] |
The genius next door was bussing tables |
| [01:29.31] |
Wiping clean the keptchup bottle labels |
| [01:34.80] |
Getting high and mumbling German fables |
| [01:39.86] |
Didn't care as long as he was able |
| [01:44.79] |
To strip his clothes off by the dumpsters |
| [01:50.23] |
At night while every one was sleeping |
| [01:55.51] |
And wade midway into that porridge |
| [02:00.83] |
Just him and the secret he was keeping |
| [02:04.49] |
|
| [02:04.81] |
If you just hold in your breath |
| [02:10.56] |
'Til you come back up in full |
| [02:16.72] |
Hold in your breath |
| [02:20.98] |
'Til you thought it through |
| [02:23.86] |
You foolish child |
| [03:01.74][02:28.42] |
|
| [03:04.63] |
In the morning the film crews start arriving |
| [03:09.97] |
With donuts, coffee and reporters |
| [03:15.17] |
The kids were waking up, hung over |
| [03:19.99] |
The neighbors were starting up their cars |
| [03:25.32] |
The garbageman were emptying the dumpsters |
| [03:30.54] |
Atheists were praying full of sarcasm |
| [03:35.95] |
And the genius next door was sleeping |
| [03:40.99] |
Dreaming that the antidote is orgasm |
| [03:44.98] |
|
| [03:45.24] |
If you just hold in your breath |
| [03:50.98] |
'Til you come back up in full |
| [03:57.08] |
Hold in your breath |
| [04:01.08] |
'Til you thought it through |
| [04:04.18] |
You foolish child |
| [04:15.70] |
