beatenberg - the prince of the hanging gardens lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
i’m a lazy student
in a circular library
with a gl-ss ceiling
and a parquet floor
after graduation
i’m gonna go to the amazon
in search of a pigment
that i want on my wall

[pre-chorus]
hold me
scold me
extol me
console me
through the 90s
and the 80s
and the tigris
the euphrates

[chorus]
and after all that i’ve said
i want you to know me
i want you to throw me
in the river
so the clouds that follow my head
can finally rain down
on all your hydrangeas
i never had a doubt that you would come through
i always adored you
i always ignored you
just to make you try harder
to you do what you do
i had to be awful
just to keep you from danger

[verse 2]
come stand at my window
with a view of suburbia
as it marks out the edges
of my opulent grounds
i’m rich but i’m troubled;
there’s a worm in my bougainvillaea
why do you plague me
when my ethics are sound?

[pre-chorus]
hold me
scold me
extol me
console me
through the 90s
and the 80s
through the waters
of the sea

[chorus]
and after all that i’ve said
i want you to know me
i want you to throw me
in the river
so the clouds that follow my head
can finally rain down
on all your hydrangeas
i never had a doubt that you would come through
i always adored you
i always ignored you
just to make you try harder
to you do what you do
i had to be awful
just to keep you from danger

[bridge]
and after all i’ve said
it’s academia
how could i be so faithful
to the queen of media?

[pre-chorus]
through the 90s
and the 80s
in the ad
and the bc
through the xanthus
and the yangtze
and the niger
and the ganges

[pre-chorus]
hold me
fold me
control me
cajole me
and release me
on the lethe
and the ichor through my body

[chorus]
and after all that i’ve said
i want you to know me
i want you to throw me
in the river
so the clouds that follow my head
can finally rain down
on all your hydrangeas
i never had a doubt that you would come through
i always adored you
i always ignored you
just to make you try harder
to you do what you do
i had to be awful
just to keep you from danger

[outro]
babylon
babble on
