Lyrics

Who told Newton to wait for the apple to fall? It's not a question of gravity It's a question of independence And why won't you say that you're cold? And why won't you say that you're cold? Why won't you say that it's all overturned? I peeled out of Brisbane for Memphis And a world disappeared Goodbye to hibiscus sound debts And a future of beer And why won't you say that you're cold? And why won't you say that you're cold? Why won't you say that it's all overturned? And then it all went black With the flap of a raven's wing And where we'd been sitting in the garden Was just an empty swing (empty swing) (empty swing) Who told Newton to wait for the apple to fall? It's not a question of gravity It's a question of independence So why won't you say that you're cold? And why won't you say that you're cold? Why won't you say that it's all overturned? And that's why you went to the snow And that's why you ran from the snow Why won't you say that it's all overturned? Say that it's all overturned
