Andrew Bird - Heretics [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Verse 1]
Bore holes through our tongues then sing a song about it
Held our breath for too long ‘til we’re half sick about it
Tell us what we did wrong and you can blame us for it
Turn the clamp on our thumbs so we’re down about it
And tell us what so we’re down about it

[Bridge]
How about some credit now
Where credit is due, for the damage that we’ve done
We have brought upon ourselves and others
With this a slow and vicious gun
And although pratfalls can be fun, encores can be fatal

[Chorus]
And then I hear you say
Thank God it’s fatal, thank God it’s fatal, not shy
Not shy of fatal, not shy of fatal, thank God
Thank God it’s fatal, thank God it’s fatal, not shy
Not shy of fatal, not shy of fatal

[Bridge]
Wait just a second now
It’s not all that bad
Are we not having fun
You make your mountains of handkerchiefs
Where the mascara always runs
So be careful when you’re done
You’re bound to get post-natal
Wait, did I just hear you say

[Chorus]
Thank God it’s fatal
No, we don’t want to hear the sound of a door
No, we don’t want to hear the sound of a door
And we don’t want to hear the signs that you bore
You know the kind of sign you hang on a door
Saying, “we'll be back, what a crack!”

[Break]
Now don’t you think we might have heard all that before?

Yeah, don't you think we might have heard all that before?

[Verse 1]
