Yeasayer - Swallowing the Decibels lyrics

Nobody makes noise to make the Earth move anymore An easy line in a shallow groove, can you ask for more I'm just as hungry as I was before And no one's gonna remember your name, when you're gone Gonna find another pretty diva with a new song Two more if you're lucky you could last so long At best reflect your time And show it off until your back goes out, and keep sharp eyed I thought I told you not to lay your guard down Your work is done, let's go out, don't come here, not next door They might've cared what you were listening to last year, now they're bored I'm just as hungry as I was before At best reflect your time And show it off until your back goes out, and keep sharp eyes I thought I told you not to lay your guard down Reflect your time And show it off until your back goes out, and keep sharp eyed I thought I told you not to lay your guard now How can you spend your past you can't pretend I see you still pecking on the scraps on the floor They'll never lie, they won't take the time to get by them and you will They're going nowhere but they won't stop trying and we're swallowing the decibels We're going nowhere but we won't stop trying and we're swallowing the decibels (x12)
