Destroyer - Song About Disappointment Lyrics






Our brush with success first came
When we sold everything in a buyer's market
Cling cling went the change in our pockets
Away it went when we bought the rockets

I took aim, my fire wasn't friendly
Everything was welcome, the people played a medley for me

Trick writers of the world, most hilarious
They're bad, embarrassingly so
They got theirs when I launched what was mine
Which at the time seemed plenty and appropriate

Cut to us not sitting or standing
Stood up, still small, with our six knees on
A demand exists for something golden and breathy
Demanded of something neither golden nor breathy

So please
Ignore
This plea
Made for a republic
Even I won't recognize

Destroyer Song About Disappointment Comments
  1. G.... C....

    I guess maybe I'm wrong but I actually really like this song. It says something if I only heard it once years ago and liked it enough to find way later. Pretty depressing music though.

  2. T.... V....

    I agree on both accts. As a Destroyer fan I thought it was my duty to upload this old shit just so it would be available to goof on. And yeah, that dude makes me look huge too.

  3. J.... ....

    This is total crap and the guy in the picture is rather disappointing too, if you get my meaning.
