Let's Be Civilized Lyrics - No One Listens To The Band Anymore - Damnwells

There's a groom and a bride in my mind 

Sending postcards and memories 

There's a wicked witch 

Suicide, cigarettes and climbing trees 

There's a mountain and a valley and a little girl 

Who is something sweet 

She's a fortune-teller Sally 

I'm a drunken clown, who always falls asleep 

I was faking death to wake up new 

'Cause I was too afraid to stand in my shoes 

I called you on the telephone 

Were you home? 

It didn't sound like you 

Set me up another shot 

Close the windows, stop the clock 

Let's sing Grecian lullabies 

I'm Dionysus in disguise 

No one's gonna rescue you, 

'Cause no one has a fucking clue 

So let's be civilized 

Let's say 'I love you' 

There's a ghost in my seat kissing girls 

And using up my stolen charm 

He said he'll give it back, he was once an honest man 

Before he bought the farm 

I was seething with an impious rage 

'Cause I was stuck inside a poemless page 

I was conquered like the Byzantine on Halloween 

And woke up in a cage 

Set me up another shot 

Close the windows, stop the clock 

Let's sing Grecian lullabies 

I'm Dionysus in disguise 

No one's gonna rescue you, 

'Cause no one has a fucking clue 

So let's be civilized 

Let's say 'I love you' 

Set me up another shot 

Close the windows, stop the clock 

Let's sing Grecian lullabies 

I'm Dionysus in disguise 

No one's gonna rescue you, 

'Cause no one has a fucking clue 

So let's be civilized 

Not so petrified 

Let's be civilized 

Let's say 'I love you'
