Kissing the Beehive

Lyrics

[Verse 1: Dan Boeckner] While stone wither, our hearts beat regular time Well, the landscapes don't, the river's flowing by We're just drifting all night long, hands to the sky And a captain, oh, he is never denied [Verse 2: Dan Boeckner] I heard them singing out from shore, hands at the sides Someone fired a rifle overhead to tear at the sky We're just drifting all night long, here with the flies And a captain, oh, he is never denied [Verse 3: Spencer Krug] As if you didn't know that it would sting Kissing the beehive Pissing down the mountain side, you believe the rain As if you didn't know that it would sting Kissing the beehive And fucking up your finger from pushing on the ring Sing [Verse 4: Dan Boeckner] Well, we lay On frigid shores of light We need nothing of his bitter care, oh ooh oh-oh Something strange And it calls tonight Still we leave nothing in his bitter hand, oh ooh oh-oh [Verse 5: Spencer Krug] I wish I could believe in you Crashing all the weddings wearing white We all hate the landlord, baby – it's alright, it's alright I wish I could believe in who you are You held your cock in the air and you called it a guitar You put your face on the glass and you called it good cinema, oh As if you didn't know that it would sting [Interlude: Spencer Krug & Dan Boeckner] Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh [Verse 6: Spencer Krug] Johnathan, Johnathan Waterfalls are running thin, you know Here's a holy grail for you to hold Fire in the hole, fire in the hole, fire in the hole [Verse 7: Spencer Krug] I am not a wild party I'm just in union at the show Put the ring back on, and take your husband home And fire in the hole, fire in the hole, fire in the hole Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh [Verse 8: Spencer Krug] And Radio, Radio Why did you leave Virginia's side? It's an alibi, we all know how the music died Fire in the hole, fire in the hole, fire in the hole, fire in the hole Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh [Verse 9: Spencer Krug] Johnathan, Johnathan Waterfalls are running thin, you know Here's a finger made from me for you to hold Fire in the hole, fire in the hole, fire in the hole Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh [Verse 10: Dan Boeckner, (Spencer Krug)] Estranged from the captain's light And his bitter hand (Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh) Estranged from the captain's light And his bitter hand (Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh) [Outro: Spencer Krug] Ohh, ohh oh oh, ohh oh oh oh Ohh, ohh oh oh, ohh oh oh oh Ohh, ohh oh oh, ohh oh oh oh Ohh, ohh oh oh, ohh oh oh oh
