Caring Is Creepy Lyrics

The song Caring Is Creepy is performed by The Shins in the album named Oh, Inverted World in the year 2001 .

I think i'll go home and mull this over
Before i cram it down my throat
At long last it's crashed, its colossal ma*s
Has broken up into bits in my moat.

Lift the mattress off the floor
Walk the cramps off
Go meander in the cold
Hail to your dark skin
Hiding the fact you're dead again
Undeneath the power lines seeking shade
Far above our heads are the icy heights that contain all reason

It's a luscious mix of words and tricks
That let us bet when you know we should fold
On rocks i dreamt of where we'd stepped
And of the whole mess of roads we're now on.

Hold your gla*s up, hold it in
Never betray the way you've always known it is.
One day i'll be wondering how
I got so old just wondering how
I never got cold wearing nothing in the snow.

This is way beyond my remote concern
Of being condescending

All these squawking birds won't quit.
Building nothing, laying bricks.

The Shins - Oh, Inverted World
