Neutral Milk Hotel - Wood Guitar Lyrics






Here we are, a final moment
found inside a wood guitar
That splits the seams wide open
Oh Oh
‘cause I know who you are
You paint the doors and walls
and listen for the bell-chime calls
And life is nothing more at all than
tea-cup drips and bouncing balls
And Oh
It's real, and never fading
Listen to the strings you've strung
and all the words you're saying now

Sing a song, a song with feeling
that sounds best when you've hit the bong
and concludes deeper meaning
Oh Oh
‘cause I know sometimes
All the thoughts can sometimes hit
Confusion as the record skips
But who needs fools to think you‘re hip
When all the world is full of shit
And Oh
I hear the timbres you're playing
It sits inside the summer sky
It's softly cascading

    Great poet! Great lyricist! Much better than Lennon and McCartney! I´m a big fan from Brazil!

  2. A.... ....

    Oh this is "Here We Are!"

  3. M.... D....

    Jeff Mangum's only mistake was naming his band Neutral Milk Hotel, but who needs fools to think you're hip?

  4. T.... ....

    Sounds like a Beatles song.

    Thank you so much for uploading all these awesome rare demos and live performances. I want to let you know that I really appreciate it and frequently listen to the content you share. They have so many cool songs that never saw an official release. Anyway, you're awesome, keep doing what you're doing!

    Its no problem. :) I was very surprised when I found them. At face value, NMH seems like a band with only two albums worth of music (Two and a half these days, I guess, with their recent collection out), but you look closely and they have sooo much more. I've been happy to share it with people, and when this darn copyright nonsense is over, I'll be sure to get back to full concerts. Glad you're enjoying what you're hearing!
