TV On The Radio - Happy Idiot

Stuck in the shade

Where there's no sunshine

I don't wanna play

With them other kids in the sun

Since you left me babe

It's been a long way down

Yea you left me babe

It's been a long way down

What you don't know won't hurt you yea

Ignorance is bliss

I'm a happy idiot

Waving at cars

I'm gonna bang my head to the wall

'Till I feel like nothing at all

I'm a happy idiot

To keep my mind off you

Stuck in a daze and I've lost my mind

I don't wanna stay

Where the blame's all mine

Since you left me babe

It's been a long way down

Yea you left me babe

It's been a long way down

So I shut it off

So I shut it all off

So I shut it off

So I shut it all off

It's been a long way down

It's been a long way down

What you don't know won't hurt you yea

Ignorance is bliss

I'm a happy idiot

Waving at cars

I'm gonna bang my head to the wall

'Till I feel like nothing at all

I'm a happy idiot

To keep my mind off you

To keep my mind off you

To keep my mind off you

TV On The Radio - Lazerray

Four thousand years ago, I came back to my senses
Jumped on a laser ray and blew into a new dimension
This vertical line, I watch it go by

Chop down your master plan in nanoseconds, man
I hope you understand that nothing living lasts forever
This vertical line, I watch it go by

I can feel it
Overheating
So bad, it makes me want to cry
I can feel it
Overheating
A burning heart unstuck in time

Now I'm a solar flare, now I'm that light that rages
Now I'm that laser ray that blows a hole right through the ages
This vertical line, I watch it go by

Ain't got no second-hand, just got my good intentions
Just got my laser ray exploding into new dimensions
This vertical line, I watch it go by

I can feel it
Overheating
So bad, it makes me want to cry
I can feel it
Overheating
A burning heart unstuck in time

AHLAHA!
From the side, gets hot
That she could fuse us into one
If only we could take the light
Well, I got mine, yes, I got mine

Four thousand years ago, I came back to my senses
Swallowed a laser ray and blew my mind in all directions
This vertical line, I watch it go by

Chop down your master plan in nanoseconds, man
I hope you understand that nothing living lasts forever
This vertical line, I watch it go by

I can feel it
Overheating
So bad, it makes me want to cry
I can feel it
Overheating
A burning heart unstuck in time

AHLAHA!
Seen the stars last night
We're only vehicles for life
So should your mind begin to shine
Say "hey, alright!", say "I got mine!"
Say "hey, alright!", say "I got mine!"
Say "hey, alright!", say "I got mine!"
Say "hey, alright!", say "I got mine!"

TV On The Radio - Winter

Oh, it's the winter of the wanted
Yeah, it's the hardest part of nature
Lord, have mercy on this creature
Give me some heat, I know you've got it
And who knows what the summer's gonna bring us?
Comes on slow, gotta keep the fire in us

So completely in the dark now
I hope that night will last forever
Yeah, you know I like it better
When we're a little bit frightened
And who knows what the night is gonna show us?
And we'll go where nobody's gonna know us

I was blinded by sympathy
For a minute, I was strung out
Got my eyes wide open now
I can see the storm ahead of me
I say "go" cause I know it's gonna clean us
No control, let the physical redeem us

This is my confession, yeah
Think I'll learn my lesson, yeah
This is my confession, yeah

Can you hear me calling out
Like a siren to a sailor?
Only trip that last forever
Let the ocean take us over now
Gotta know that there's a chemistry between us
Gonna show that I want you and I need it

Let the lightning strike me down now
As long as we're together
Can't think of nothing better
Than a union in the afterglow
Let it go, all the thinking and the reason
Here we go to the lovin' and the pleasin'

Lay me down, if you know
Let's go out, I'm ready for
Gently now, we can go on
Gonna keep you for the winter
Gonna keep you for the winter
Gonna keep you for the winter
Gonna keep you for the

Caught up in the feeling
Cut right through the ceiling
Ground below receding
Blink of an eye, higher than high
Father, sister, brothers
Others born of mothers
Every friend and lover
Now is the time, get on the ride
Caught up in the feeling
Up against the feeling
Caught up in the feeling

With no hesitation

This is the ride of your life
And it goes all day and all night

Soon we will discover
We turn into each other
Into the night, we're gonna ride
Think about the future
