The National - Grease In Your Hair (Official Audio)

’Grease In Your Hair’ taken from new album ’First Two Pages Of Frankenstein’ out now via 4AD. Lyrics: This machine’s a backwards thinker It looks for you until it’s neck hurts Not so hard to be a person If you’ve got something you can reference Grease in your hair, fingernail polish Water balloon eyes, totally honest I’ve worked up a sincere speech I just don’t know how I’m going to say it The second I stand up I freeze My only move here is to faint Don’t splash apart, everything changes All jumbled up, wide open spaces Grease in your hair, fingernail polish Water balloon eyes, totally honest Down we go on the grass Magnets make machines go crazy I used to know you well You’d give me such a future feeling We’re in the middle of Some kind of cosmic rearrangement You were so funny then And I kept thinking I would catch it Stay in one state, nothing is stable Whip on a cape, step on a cable I have no more feeling for it I have no more frame of mind I have no more feeling for it I have no more frame of mind Grease in your hair, fingernail polish Water balloon eyes, totally honest Don’t splash apart, everything changes All jumbled up, wide open spaces Down we go on the grass Magnets make machines go crazy I used to know you well You’d give me such a future feeling We’re in the middle of Some kind of cosmic rearrangement You were so funny then And I kept thinking I would catch it I kept thinking I would catch it I kept thinking I would catch it I kept thinking I would catch it
