Andrew Bird - Fiery Crash Lyrics
Turnstiles on mezzanine
Jet waves and Dramamine fiends
And x-ray machines
You were hurling through space
G-forces twisting your face
A fatal premonition
You know you got to envision
The fiery crash
Oh close your eyes and you wake up
Face stuck to a vinyl settee
Oh the line was starting to break up
Just as you were starting to say
Something apropos I don't know
Lou Dobbs and the CNN team
On every monitor screen
You were caught in the crossfire
Where every human face
Has you reaching for your mace
So it's kind of an imposition
Fatal premonition
To save our lives you've got to envision
To save all our lives you've got to envision
And to save all our lives you've got to envision
The fiery crash
It's just a formality
Why must I explain?
Just a nod to mortality
Before you get on a plane
Oh close your eyes and you wake up
Face stuck to a vinyl settee
Oh the line was starting to break up
What was that you were going to say?

Andrew Bird Fiery Crash Comments
I love his more noisy side. Such drone, such angst.
I was told about the Russian airplane crash but people were messing me up, telling me flight #92 or #93 and the death toll was 92 and one or two people made me think it was a Delta or Southwestern crash but I got the time of day and not the day because my telepathy was too weak to hear the telepathic bears I get it from and others always try to mess me up. I posted several hours before the crash, you can check Google+
Jerry Paul Sanders I swear I have always thought it was about relationships as well. The fiery crash representing the end. Hahaha. Everything from this song can be interpreted as such. At least in my mine.
Jerry Paul Sanders mind
To me, this song is about the eye of the storm waking up and mass crashing down like a galaxy... a giant storm of light and dark.
Its a plea for a new beginning brought on by something huge impacting the surface of this planet.
I understand everything in this song is about planes and the fear of flying... But what if it was about the fear of getting into a relationship? And the plane allegory is just that... an allegory.
so good
One of my favorite tracks, ever.
thank you ronnie vannucci jr. for showing me this piece of art!
Nice video! If you get a minute you should check out one of ours! Hope you enjoy it!
probably my favorite album <3 but i just love everything he does
Go buy pretty much any album that has his name attached. He's a musician's musician and we don;t get many of those these days. He's one of my favorite artists without a doubt.
Does anyone else think this song could be about the president or another prominent political figure?
I think it's about someone with an acute fear of flying : )`
@sidDkid87 That's a cool idea, too.
+TrueImmortality He is scared of crashing in a airplane, so has a superstition that if he images a crash it won't happen.
Great song!
you know you got to envision
He's known by the right people!
Modern musicians...take notes.
Obviously not that famous or people would know who im talking about when I bring him up in convo
but American.... so better :)
people are close-minded dumb fucks, mostly.
lyrical genious.
I shit you not, I clicked on the link to this song, and the Flash player crashed.
He is very famous...
