Mountain Goats, The - Sail Babylon Springs Lyrics






But meanwhile downstairs, I'm setting up shop
A little too proud to let the matter drop
And I can hear you up there
Isn't it romantic?
You're huffing and puffing rearranging
Deck chairs on the titanic
And I reach for a glass of cool water drawn
From the rivers of babylon

And meanwhile outside, the stars have come out
And the humid summer air pulls at the ring in my snout
And you stand at your window looking down
And I spread wide my arms
Jump if you want to jump, jump if you want to
The water's warm

I know
I know 'cause I've been swimming
Blindly along through the rivers of babylon

    And meanwhile downstairs
    I'm setting up shop
    A little too proud
    To let the matter drop

    And I can hear you up there
    Isn't it romantic?
    You're huffing and puffing, rearranging
    Deck chairs on the Titanic
    And I reach for a glass
    Of cool water drawn
    From the rivers of Babylon

    And meanwhile outside
    The stars have come out
    And the humid summer air
    Pulls at the ring in my snout

    And you stand at your window looking down
    And I spread wide my arms
    Jump if you want to jump
    Jump if you want to
    The water's warm, I know
    I know cause I've been swimming
    Blindly along
    Through the rivers of Babylon
