lyrics

Fill up your pockets with all you can see
the future is all in our heads
all the Muslims are dancing on old Hancock street
and I'm listening for your footsteps instead
and oh oh my mon amie
all the ancient roads lead to your bed
But don't, don't wait for me
I'm sleeping with the voice in my head

It goes oh oh...

Pick up your 6th sense he's sleeping on a park bench the Delaware moon on his back
glad handing pirates are waiting in silence the stones of the tomb shall retract
and the black face high school highway deposits an el train is coming on fast
and the ancient road don't-you-knows they're hanging out with so and so don't speak if you don't understand
and I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know what you need
and I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know what you need

It goes oh oh...
