Animal Collective - April And The Phantom lyrics

When April pa**es by, she thinks of saying bye She tells her mother, I am not afraid Of dying in the bath, or swinging from up here She asks her mother if she slept with strangers Phantom was the bright way out Of all the things her mother said A whisper to her scream An Autumn in my green December, hello frost Her mother would say "Dad, I don't know where April went" She ran out in nature! She ran out in nature! She ran out in nature! She ran out in nature, AH! She ran out in nature… I found the Phantom would go Across the river and hide from all the suffering Like the shades of trees Take off my dress and flow into the stuff we're in She ran out in nature What'd she find? She ran out in nature Where'd she go? She ran out in nature Phantom light She ran out in nature Take her home Everybody wants it! Aaah! Can't you see me waste it? She ran out in nature… We've gotta buy our land When they go out and take all the stuff we're in We've got neither reachin' for the stars And beg and keep us sufferin' She ran out in nature What'd she find? She ran out in nature Where'd she go? She ran out in nature Can't somebody She ran out in nature Take her home? Everybody wants it! Aaah! Can't you see me waste it! I finally see a baby girl, I'm sorry April, but you'll be fine ‘til then, I'm the Phantom, I'm the Phantom, I'm the Phantom, When I sleep around, and you're on top, A frenzy April, then we ride again I'm the Phantom, I'm the Phantom, I'm the Phantom, And in the end, your mother knows, I'm sorry April, but a child grows I'm the Phantom, I'm the Phantom, I'm the Phantom, I am… Watch me as I lead the way From infancy to grown up babies -Phantom, please put on my make-up! I am breathin', I'll keep callin' -Phantom, you're all white and naked! Have your baby, I'll keep callin' -I'm not right, I'm not fakin'! I am burnin', and I'm shakin' -April, no, it's just a spirit! I am there, end is nearin' April and the Phantom They were just like lovers Always sneakin' kisses for the weekend Everything's just okay with me Everything's just alright with… April and the Phantom spoke in secret code Until they buried Phantom by the road Everything's just alright with me... Everything's just alright with Phantom… Kid has got no friends… Kid has got no friends at all
