Long Days Songtext
von David & the Citizens

There are two ways of doing this
one is easy and one is complicated
and it′s up to me to pick one, now
and I don't think I′ll pick the easy one
of all these short-life plans they're building here
there's not a single one you should pay attention to
they only do it ′cos it looks so fucking good
when they show it on the news

you get long days of belly-ache, that′s you inside of her
you get a wire under the ocean to connect and talk to me
-Long days of belly-ache


A million things that I should do
but I tell you all it's like I′m glued to this chair
November passed just like that
November passed just like that
and I consider these options again
all you Mr. Suit-gentlemen
come bury me with bullshit, please
I know exactly how it feels

you get long days of belly-ache, that's me inside of her
you get a wire across the sky to carry my love
long days of absolutely nothing at all...

so go ahead, tell me I′m stupid
never ever been a sunbeam
I want to scream until my lounges bleed
I want to scream until I can't speak
so go on, dig your thumbs in
take a bite of me
take another bite of me

and give me long days of belly-ache,
that′s you inside of me
you get a wire across the sky
to carry all the love you need
long days of absolutely nothing,
nothing at all
long days of belly-ache
