Andrew Bird - Simple X lyrics

Some people wake up on Monday mornings barring maelstroms and red flare warnings with no explosions and no surprises perform a series of exercises hold your fire take your place around an open fire before your neurons declare a crisis before your trace Serotonin rises before you're reading your coffee grounds and before a pundit can make a sound and before you're reading your list of vices perform the simplest exercises so here at the end the war is over there's nothing left to defend no cliffs of Dover so let us put down our pens and this concludes our test our minds are scattered about from hell to breakfast hold your fire take your place around an open fire don't open fire
