[00:-3.00]MGMT - Song For Dan Treacy
[00:-2.00]
[00:00.35]
[00:00.90]He spends his time
[00:02.95]Or maybe half of his time
[00:04.88]Or part of the time wandering
[00:05.97]'Round the creeks and cobble stones of hackney lanes
[00:09.68]
[00:11.49]With a tear in his eye
[00:13.98]As the children walk by, he's thinking of a song
[00:17.24]Then stops to paint a picture of a frown
[00:21.72]Walking around
[00:23.00]
[00:41.84]Dan Treacy's smile
[00:43.61]Leaves you trying to decide who's the victim, what's the crime?
[00:46.88]No rest for the mind
[00:48.15]That's seen it all before
[00:50.55]
[00:52.72]And I don't know where he lives
[00:54.80]But he's a myth of a man
[00:56.51]And Texas Bob the cameraman is off to fix his sit before the show
[01:02.04]Yeah, but where did he go?
[01:03.56]
[01:14.96]To know when your time's up
[01:17.77]You flip the glass and watch the hours quickening
[01:23.48]Oh oh oh oh oh
[01:25.14]In the back of the station
[01:27.58]Fluorescent lights about to quit their flickering
[01:32.96]Well he speaks his mind
[01:35.84]He says "what is crime?"
[01:38.04]Dan Treacy's eyes
[01:42.82]
[01:43.72]In the middle of the park
[01:45.86]When the underground is dark,
[01:47.47]He's a poet he's a lark
[01:48.90]He starts thinking about a place that no one knows
[01:53.45]
[01:55.02]And when the creeks run dry
[01:57.15]He stays frozen in time
[01:58.78]Strange lights in the sky start blinking
[02:01.30]I can see the car outside but he's listening
[02:05.84]He's listening
[02:11.09]
[02:11.51]And he's making up his mind
[02:13.45]He made his mind up
[02:15.83]To get things done and overcome
[02:19.53]
[02:22.98]He made his mind up
[02:25.76]Yeah he's gonna let it go
[02:30.19]
[02:33.25]He made his mind up
[02:35.85]In the park and at the station
[02:39.73]
[02:43.12]He made his mind up
[02:45.74]Yeah, he's gonna get it done
[02:49.87]
[02:52.92]He made his mind up
[02:55.69]Ooh yeah he's gonna get it done
[02:59.16]
[03:02.67]He made his mind up
[03:11.41]Yeah, he's gonna let it go, uh oh
[03:15.01]
[03:16.30]No matter the time
[03:19.40]Oh oh
[03:22.23]When the creeps run by
[03:25.08]Oh no
[03:27.43]
[03:27.48]He's making his mind up
[03:30.41]Oh oh oh oh
[03:33.09]
[03:33.61]Yeah he's gonna get it done whoa
[03:38.95]Oh yeah, when the creeks run dry whoa oh
[03:44.95]Yeah, he's gonna listen to his soul,
[03:50.45]Yeah, when the creeps walk by
[03:52.58]"Come here boy, look me in the eye"
[03:55.46]Bow to the heart, back to the beat of Dan Treacy
[04:01.75]
