Eels - In The Yard, Behind The Church Lyrics
In the yard, behind the church where
Butterflies and blackbirds search for
A safe place to rest the night away
We will go down to the brook and
Sit upon the overlook then
We will walk among the graves of
Men long dead with presidents' names and
Listen to the water flow softly by
I will kiss you on the lips now
And as the sky grows dark we'll strip down
And let the water wash away all lies
In the yard, behind the church where
Butterflies and blackbirds perch on
We will lay down on the ground and
Put our cheeks against the dirt down
Where it no longer matters
Where you've been

Eels In The Yard, Behind The Church Comments
Interesting how Eels followed Beck into the anti-folk/electro/noise style but where as Beck's a total douche, we've got a real lover here brimming with humility, sincerity, and transcendent vibrations.
It makes me far away from myself. I fly to somewhere old places like my goldfish buried, hospital where my grandmother passed away...Sadly beautiful
Beautifully put together
Fantastic song and the lyrics look very cool
Listened to the album today; still sounds damn wonderful, glorious
The best Eels album ever, I don't know how they did it but really hit their peak here
Thats exactly how i imagined the video!!
Marvelous song
E and Eels.....wicked shit!
