[Verse 1: Ted Leo]
Well, they clear the lanes for bicycles before the walks
Every road and old canal
And Frysk Hynder gives the doves communion with the hawks
Under wing of the White Owl
Not every cat has got to wear a bell
Following the footprints where the new snow fell
I know about the hollow core where nothing much can dwell
[Verse 2: Ted Leo and Aimee Mann]
So, the bones we buried in the yard last season
Cheerful, they remain
And the lonely, all so bold and armed with reason
Fearful to complain
I was the one who read the map of stars
The little dipper from the handlebars
But you're the one who saw the bridge
And knew that it was ours
[Chorus: Aimee Mann and Ted Leo] x2
And now the snow in the street is turning gray
All the birds at our feet have flown away
It's complicity and heat on holiday
But jaws of defeat at Zuiderzee
Asking the prisoner to stay
Well, they clear the lanes for bicycles before the walks
Every road and old canal
And Frysk Hynder gives the doves communion with the hawks
Under wing of the White Owl
Not every cat has got to wear a bell
Following the footprints where the new snow fell
I know about the hollow core where nothing much can dwell
[Verse 2: Ted Leo and Aimee Mann]
So, the bones we buried in the yard last season
Cheerful, they remain
And the lonely, all so bold and armed with reason
Fearful to complain
I was the one who read the map of stars
The little dipper from the handlebars
But you're the one who saw the bridge
And knew that it was ours
[Chorus: Aimee Mann and Ted Leo] x2
And now the snow in the street is turning gray
All the birds at our feet have flown away
It's complicity and heat on holiday
But jaws of defeat at Zuiderzee
Asking the prisoner to stay
