nellie mckay – galleon lyrics
sat-rday night in the men’s ensemble dressin’ room
startin’ a fight in the men’s ensemble lair
beware of dreams come true
it means you have to share a room but tell ’em i’ll be there
(it’s sat-rday night)
they said we’re one big family but i’m just duckin’ tangerines
and lookin’ for my gun
(it’s sat-rday night)
there’s lots of hate and jealous fear and there’s no favored nations here
now where’s my elf ears gone?
(it’s sat-rday night)
sat-rday night in the men’s ensemble dressin’ room
watchin’ the fight in the men’s ensemble lair
you may escape the cage
but then you have to share a stage and tell ’em i’ll be there
(it’s sat-rday night)
and now back to our new high school
(the wind blasts and the water flows)
and they got me wrong, yeah, they got me wrong again
(as the winter closes at dawn of newborn spring)
and although you’re all talentless fools
(as each festering light explodes)
can’t we get along, can’t we get along, my friends?
(there’s a th-rn that grows in the sun so sweltering)
i got to be free, i got to for me
(this manifest bore a blistering sore)
and if you can’t see, well, that’s enough
(long splintering war-torn country m-ssacre of blood and blue brains)
that’s all that i need to see you’re all insecure, pedicured f-cks
(oh, please let the rain break and wash them away)
(it’s sat-rday night)
(it’s sat-rday night)
and now’s the time to vindicate, tomorrow’s just a matinée
and then we settle scores
(it’s sat-rday night)
just one more week and then i’m done, just one more piece of chewin’ gum
and i don’t care no more
(it’s sat-rday night)
sat-rday night in the men’s ensemble dressin’ room
startin’ a fight in the men’s ensemble lair
you may escape the crypt but keep your distance from all scripts
because before you’re even aware, you’ll be there
(it’s sat-rday night)
(it’s sat-rday night)
sat-rday night in the men’s ensemble dressin’ room
startin’ a fight in the men’s ensemble lair
(it’s sat-rday night)
