Phantasies Lyrics - Singles - Stephen Malkmus

Wake up early in Karakatu, Alaska 

We put our masks on to welcome the dawn 

Call the huskies and collide into their fur 

Fragrant in the overcast 

Don't be a bitter man 

It could be worse 

A slave in Belarus or 

A mat in Japan 

Its cold as shit, always that way 

Sometimes it gets to 99 below

5 Totally Underrated Christmas Songs 

Ah, ah, ah, ah 

Ah, ah 

(Whoa wha-oh) 

I got some lovely phantasies 

(Whoa wha-oh) 

I got some lovely phantasies 

And you got some lovely phantasies 

Tear off the top, let your memory pop 

Its running, running, running, running away 

After hours of fishin' through holes 

In the ice we drilled 

You told me that you had a plan 

Lets emigrate south to Sarasota 

Where the marlin fishing never lets up 

Until you want it to end 

(White men go, white men go) 

Photos 

White men go to pieces in the tropics 

I bet that is a topic 

You'd rather not broach 

Later on I'm gonna turn the heat to ten 

I'll thaw your foolish dreams away, ay 

(Whoa wha-oh) 

I got some lovely phantasies 

(Whoa wha-oh) 

I got some lovely phantasies 

And you got some lovely phantasies 

Tear off the top, let your memory pop 

Its running, running, running, running away
