Come Here Get Away From Me Songtext
von Ezra Furman

(Two, three, go)

I suck all the life out of everything I see
I drank a bottle of wine and got the digital content blues
I got money saved up somewhere
Lost the card and the checkbook, the name of the bank
There′s a plague in my head
Come here and get away from me

I believe in God but I don't believe we′re getting out of this one
Before somebody pays for the things I've done
I did some terrible things, it's true
But even terrible-r were the things I didn′t do
When I was living out in Kalamazoo
Get away from me


All my life
All my life, I′m jumping
Rock to rock
I see you in your dreams (see you)
All my life
All my life, I've built this fortress on the edge of your town
Come here and get away from me

Have you ever stayed up all night in a backseat parked in a field in Arkansas
While a man on a motorcycle circles around real slow?
And you shiver, and it′s cold, and the sun comes up
And your friend wakes up and you tell 'em about the man
Was he ever really there? And you don′t even know

So, you say, you wanna get to know me
So, you say, you wanna make contact
Well, talk to me, baby, come here, get away from me
Talk to me, baby, come here, get away from me
Talk to me, baby, get to know me, you can take it right back

Got one doctor that I talk to every week about this panic
Got one doctor that I talk to every week about the apathy
I can't wake up and I don′t know how to sleep
Honey, I got a paradox and I can't get free
Come here, put your hand on my knee
And don't touch me, get away from me


All my life
All my life, I′m jumping
Rock to rock
I see you in your dreams (see you)
All my life
All my life, I′ve built this fortress on the edge of your town
Come here and get away from me

Get away from me
Come here
