The Notwist

Gloomy Planets

The Notwist


Idiot job 203 
Newspapers shoot their letters at me 
I'm alone at last with every other me 
Guardian help me, angel shoot 
All you ghosts stand by and salute 
And explain: 

Why is everything so locked up? 

Lake is empty, lake is full 
People say it's a push and pull 
I know I did the wrong mistake again. 
Guardian help me, angel shoot 
All you ghosts stand by and salute 
And explain: 

Why is everything so locked up? 

I don't blame it on the front row 
don't blame it on them ruin glass 
don't blame it on the signal 
don't blame it on the steering wheel 
don't blame it on the logbooks 

'Cause I know they stray 
Like all the cars in NY 
Like all the lights on New Year 
Like all these gloomy planets 
You know they stay 

Anyway.
