When I grow up - Fever Ray
When I grow up
I want to be a forester
Run through the moss on high heels
That's what I'll do
Throwing out a boomerang
Waiting for it to come back to me
When I grow up
I want to live near the sea
Crab claws and bottles of rum
That's what I'll have
Staring at a seashell
Waiting for it to embrace me
I put my soul into what I do
Last night I drew a funny man
With dog eyes and a hanging tongue
It goes way back
I've never liked that sad look
From someone who wants to be loved by you
I'm very good with plants
When my friends are away
They let me keep the soil moist
On the seventh day I rest
For a minute or two
Then back on my feet to call for you
You've got cucumbers on your eyes
Too much time spent on nothing
Waiting for a moment to arise
The face in the ceiling
And arms too long
I'm waiting for him to catch me
PS: Ok, I tried my hardest not to repost this, but it is so good I could not resist it. Everyone is raving about this video, and what she is wearing, but I fell in love with the lyrics. Haunting is the only word to describe it. The song is absolutely lovely and the video oh so mesmerizing. If you love Bjork/Mandalay/Cocteau Twins/Lamb etc, you must check it out.
Video is in my sidebar. Told you I was obsessed. =)
PSS: I am so so so so grateful for all the wonderful comments I am getting for my last post. You all totally rock my socks.
