Of Montreal - Old Familiar Way Lyrics
Neither the flowers on the hill
or the moonlight on the sea
Have ever looked so blue
And everything looks new again
In that old familiar way
The view from my room
of the ships on the bay
Had come to bore me through and through
But they suddenly seem new again
In that old familiar way
The delicate ballet of blossoms falling off a tree
Had long gone unnoticed by me
I'm stunned by what now I finally see
It's amazing the wonders you can find
There's a skip in my step a divine state of joy
In everything I do
Cause I am feeling new again
In that old familiar way
When I'm awoken from my dreams
by a cuckoo on the roof
I always join in too
And every sound sounds new again
In that old familiar way
The life I used to know
when I was busy always on the go
Left me with nothing to show
Now I feel that I can honestly say
I'm living a suitable life
I'm glad I finally got it right
Welcome to the Gay Parade

Pet Sounds-esque
Neither the flowers on the hill
Or the moonlight on the sea
Have ever looked so blue
And everything looks new again
In that old familiar way
The view from my room
Of the ships on the bay
Had come to bore me through and through
But they suddenly seem new again
In that old familiar way
The delicate ballet of blossoms falling off a tree
Had long gone unnoticed by me
I'm stunned by what now I finally see
It's amazing the wonders you can find
Just by stepping outside
There's a skip in my step a divine state of joy
In everything I do
Cause I am feeling new again
In that old familiar way
When I'm awoken from my dreams
By a cuckoo on the roof
I always join in too
And every sound sounds new again
In that old familiar way
The life I used to know
When I was busy always on the go
Left me with nothing to show
Now I feel that I can honestly say
I'm living a suitable life
I'm glad I finally got it right

How to summarize the Zombies' style in one song
This song is so revitalizing...one of my favorites off the entire album.
@tracksuitjim D: Well fine be that way
@DamiesEvilTwin thanks my friend. i dont rly have a video of me in drag, im sorry.
@tracksuitjim There, done. T4aLrkrnLNc is the video code.
@tracksuitjim oh shit, I happen to love drag. I'll get Fun Loving Nun up.
man if you have fun loving nun or any of the other songs from this alvum that aren`t on youtube you should totally post them. ill send you a vid of me in drag if you do.
I love the new of Montreal or at least I started listening around satanic panic in the attack. I then started going further back and I must say I'm in love with oM all over again. My favorite band and pretty much all I ever listen to!
@jackcanthink
I discovered them quite by accident myself. sublime.
