Of montreal - The Party's Crashing Us

A song written by Kevin Barnes from the band Of Montreal.



You're such a mystery
I just want to stand and stare
Nibble on your ear
And smell the ocean in your hair
(Ocean in your hair, ocean in your hair)
I know you damage me
You leave me tangled in a knot
But when you reappear
I see Neptunian blues that eyes forgot
Neptunian blues that eyes forgot

Still, I only feel alive when the VU is flashing
Alarms going off in my head
I want to grab you and just kiss you
Maybe I should sit down
No sense in cacheing us now

Yeah, I only feel all right when the VU is flashing
And bombs going off in my head
I want to grab you, want to scream at you
No icing you down
The party's crashing us now
The party's crashing us now

We'll make love like a pair of black wizards
You free me from the past
You fucked the suburbs out of me
Oh well, those ugly days that made us so sick
They are just fossils now
We've learned the elevating trick

Still, I only feel alive when the VU is flashing
Alarms going off in my head
I want to grab you and just kiss you
Maybe I should calm down
No sense in cacheing us now

Still, I only feel alive when the VU is flashing
Bombs going off in my head
I want to grab you, want to scream at you
no icing me down
The party's crashing us now
The party's crashing us now

I only feel all right when the VU is flashing
Alarms going off in my head
I want to grab you, want to scream at you
No icing me down
The party's crashing us now

I only feel all right when the VU is flashing
And bombs going off in my head
I want to grab you, and just kiss you
Maybe I should calm down
No sense in cacheing us now

The party's crashing us now

@Kodama28 I'm just pointing out the extreme similarity and style of The Beatles and OM. Which leads me to believe OM took off from where the Beatles left off... add some make-believe and voila!

[Kodama28]

@PrimericanIdol what the fuck

[PrimericanIdol]

I come from an alternate universe when john Lennon neither got killed nor met Yoko Ono and the Beatles never broke up.

This song was made ny the Beatles in 1981, and Hissing Fauna and Skeletal Lamping came out in 1984 and 1986 rwespectively.
