Fruit Bat

Lyrics

[Verse 1: Nanna Bryndís Hilmarsdóttir] Sleeping in the silo, talking in the stairs How to get away from here? How to be a tender man? Walking on a tight rope, funny little game How to skip past the stream? How to climb the olive tree? [Chorus: Nanna Bryndís Hilmarsdóttir] I know something you don't know Somehow in the dead of night, we're like bunny and the reptile I need something you don't seem to need A sweeter goodbye, I'm like a fruit bat hangin' tight [Verse 2: Nanna Bryndís Hilmarsdóttir] See you on a red-eye, funny little game How to make you disappear? How to make you reappear? I'll be softer like your mother, olive in the stream You look like a portrait of your dad [Chorus: Nanna Bryndís Hilmarsdóttir & Ragnar þórhallsson] I know something you don't know Somehow in the dead of night, we're like bunny and the reptile I need something you don't seem to need Sweeter goodbye, I'm like a fruit bat hangin' tight I feel something you don't seem to feel Somehow in the dead of night, we're like bunny and the reptile I need something you don't seem to need Sweeter goodbye, I'm like a fruit bat hangin' tight [Post-Chorus: Nanna & Ragnar] I'm like a fruit bat hangin' tight, hm-hm Hm-hm, hm I'm like a fruit bat hangin' tight, ah-ha Hm-hm [Instrumental Interlude] [Bridge: Nanna Bryndís Hilmarsdóttir] Hm-hm, hm Hm-hm, hm Hm-hm, hm Hm-hm, hm [Instrumental Outro]
