Genome

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Forever dusting off the chromosomes That echo down the generations gone I swear I heard them in my headphones (in my headphones) Singing that, singing that, singing that same sweet and sour song [Chorus] Well, I'm something of my mother, something of my father Something of my sister, and something of all of the people in the pictures of the mantlepiece Yeah the people in the picture of the mantlepiеce Yeah, I'm something of my mothеr, something of my father Something of my sister, and something of all of the people in the pictures of the mantlepiece The people in the picture of the mantlepiece yeah [Verse 2] I know we're made from ancient constellations And the blood and the guts and the memories bound to the branches of the family tree And I can feel all the little pieces of this completely mono combination Bouncing and bouncing, and bouncing, and bouncing around inside of me [Chorus] Well, I'm something of my mother, something of my father Something of my sister, and something of all of the people in the pictures of on mantlepiece Yeah the people in the picture of on mantlepiece Yeah, I'm something of my mother, something of my father Something of my sister, and something of all of the people in the pictures of on mantlepiece The people in the picture of on mantlepiece [Bridge] I'll take the good and the not so great Always with differences and the ways that we relate But there is always time until it's gone Feels I'm welding on onto something, is it an unexploded bomb? Give me a word, you said; I don't understand I'll take all the temper tantrums while I hold your shaky hands [Chorus] Well, I'm something of my mother, something of my father Something of my sister, and something of all of the people in the pictures of on mantlepiece Yeah the people in the picture of on mantlepiece Yeah, I'm something of my mother, something of my father Something of my sister, and something of all of the people in the pictures of on mantlepiece The people in the picture of on mantlepiece yeah [Outro] The-the-the-the end
