Horns
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I heard it from a little bird
Who gave me permission
The naughtiest words I ever heard
That will be posed on
Some girls, we need proof
Of real root awakening
To chase the dogs away
And notify another day
Cause the beat goes on
When our fire’s gone
Oh anything can sound absurd
Depends on how you say it
As long as you have the first word
The rest is what you make it
Some boys don’t mean to
The real root awakening
They know now what they say
So chase the dogs away
Because the beat goes on, yes it does, yes it does
And the fire’s gone, then the fire’s gone away
And the lights go down, when the lights go down, go down
When the … lights out,
Who gave me permission
The smartest words I’ve ever heard
That the beats go on
Some boys don’t mean to
The real root awakening
They know now what they say
So chase the dogs away
Because the beat goes on, yes it does, yes it does
And the fire’s gone, then the fire’s gone away
And the lights go down, when the lights go down, go down
When the … lights out.
