Poke (Frightened Rabbit Cover)

Like Comment Subscribe :-) thankyouplease.

Okay, so I decided to do this song by Frightened Rabbit. I got a little emotional towards the end of the last verse which was good, but unfortunately in the end it got the better of me and I slipped up a bit. Anyway, I think an emotional recording means more than a perfect one so here it is.

I hope you all enjoy it.

Lyrics
Poke at my iris, why can't I cry about this?
Maybe there is something that you know that I don't.
We adopt brand new language, communicate through pursed lips,
And you try not to put on any sexy clothes or graces.
I might never catch a mouse and present it in my mouth,
To make you feel you're with someone who deserves to be with you.
But there's one thing we've got going and it's the only thing worth knowing,
It's got lots to do with magnets and the pull of the moon.
Why won't our love keel over as it chokes on a bone?
And we can mourn its passing and then bury it in snow.
Or should we kick its cunt in and watch as it dies from bleeding?
If you don't want to be with me just say and I will go.

*Oooh*

Well we can change our partners this is a progressive dance but
Remember it was me who dragged you up to the sweaty floor.
Well this has been a reel I've got shin-splints and a stitch from weed,
But like a drunken night it's the best bits that are coloured in.
You should look through some old photos, I adored you in every one of those.
If someone took a picture of us now they'd need to be told,
That we had ever clung and tied a navy knot with arms at night.
I'd say she was his sister but she doesn't have his nose.
And now we're unrelated and rid of all the shit we hated,
But I hate when I feel like this and I never hated you.

*Oooh*

Can't you sing a song without bloody crying mate?

[JerryClodfelter]

where did you get the tab for this? is it in standard tuning??

[blkpanther2k5]

Well I just prefer your singing buddy! Its a matter of opinion, but for me, if this was on soundclick or iTunes I'd get it.

[blkpanther2k5]

Excellent recording! Your voice comes out in a beautiful contrast with the lyrics. Could be cause I've never heard the song, but regardless I'd buy this cover!
