courtney barnett - drunk on election night lyrics

i went to party with a girl in the city on election night
i was hoping that we’re going to make a move to the left
but we’re gonna make a swing to the right

i’m singing the blues
for a country
as we’re moving to another long night

1, 2
gonna catch that plane and fly
gonna sail on the next high tide
just to get away from that
c-ck-sucking mother-f-cker
darkening my mind

i stood in the corner throwing glances at the tv
ripped the label off the bottle all night
some sucker rode up in a beemer trailing streamers
and i nearly got into a fight

i said “you’re making a fool of the country
holding hands with the christian right”
and i turned to my girl and i cried

gonna catch that train and ride
gonna sail on the next high tide
just to get away from that
c-ck-sucking mother-f-cker
playing on my mind
and darkening my time

all of a sudden i got something to say
i bury my head but it wouldn’t go away
sat around waiting for a brighter day
but the bad stuff’s coming when the good do nothing
it’s true
so what we going to do
gonna backpack to peru
gonna work for a time on a farm in timbuktu
to get away from those
c-ck-sucking mother-f-ckers
playing on my mind
to get away from those
c-ck-sucking mother-f-ckers
darkening our time
