the magnetic fields - '78 the blizzard of '78 lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
one ten year old was found after three weeks
in a snowdrift ten feet from his door
some fell asleep in their cars and awakened no more

[verse 2]
twenty-five people died shoveling snow
have that done by somebody you hate
one-hundred-sixty-six looters arrested, but wait

[chorus 1]
i spent the blizzard of ’78
on a commune in northern vermont
with all the isaac asimov anybody could want

[verse 3]
music was very much not allowed
so we said “hey kids, let’s start a band”
proof that ganesh loves us
there was no tape deck at hand

[verse 4]
the first band i’d had was called “one and a half”
we were a duo, technically
so if tonto’s expanding head band was a band
so were we

[chorus 2]
i spent the blizzard of ’78
on a commune in northern vermont
with all the ursula le guin anybody could want

[verse 5]
i played guitar, chris played tin cans
caroline played tambourine
chris was 11, caroline 12, i 13

[verse 6]
we called ourselves “the black widows”
we weren’t the last nor the first
but we were almost certainly by far the worst

[verse 7]
we made the cramps sound orchestral
that’s an achievement, i guess
as for rehearsal
we made the sh-ggs sound like yes

[chorus 3]
i spent the blizzard of ’78
on a commune in northern vermont
with all the roger zelazny anybody could want
it was h-ll
