My Morning Jacket - Librarian [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Verse 1]
Walk across the courtyard
Towards the library
I can hear the insects buzz
And the leaves 'neath my feet
Ramble up the stairwell
Into the hall of books
Since we got the interweb
These hardly get used

Duck into the men's room
Combing through my hair
When God gave us mirrors
He had no idea
Looking for a lesson
In the periodicals
There I spy you listening
To the AM radio

Karen of the Carpenters
Singing in the rain
Another lovely victim
Of the mirror's evil way
It's not like you're not trying
With a pencil in your hair
To defy the beauty
The good Lord put in there

[Hook]
Simple little bookworm, buried underneath
Is the sexiest librarian
Take off those glasses and let down your hair for me

[Verse 2]
So, I watch you through the bookcase
Imagining a scene
You and I had dinner
Spending time, then you sleep
And what then would I say to you
Lying there in bed
These words with a kiss
I would plant in your head

What is it inside our heads
That makes us do the opposite
Makes us do the opposite
Of what's right for us
Cause everything'd be great
And everything'd be good
If everybody gave
Like everybody could

[Hook]

[Outro]
Simple little beauty
Heaven in your breath
Simplest of pleasures
The world at its best
