new body rhumba (from the film White Noise) Songtext
von LCD Soundsystem

Climbing
The down escalator
To the frigid bardo (up! up! up! up!)
Rise (up! up! up! up!)
Kidnap yourself (up!)
Don′t call up the fuzz
Just gather the bills
You got fives, tens, twenties, fifties
Hundreds, hundreds, hundreds, hundreds

Yeah I need a new body
I need a new body
I need a bit of shape and a tone, oh oh
Yeah I need a new body
I need a new body
I can't shake sleeping alone


You see I have been misplaced
I have been mislaid
Like a covetous dog that you can′t just leave in the home
Yeah I need a new lover
I need a new buddy
I can't stay out too long
Yeah the hands have gone numb

(Pana! sonic! pana! sonic! pana! sonic! pana! sonic!) just give us what we want (pana! sonic! pana! sonic! pana! sonic! pana! sonic!)

I never deny it
No point in denying
The ransom and the defense
Has drained us with their expense
It's endless
Yeah I try not to hide it
I try not to buy it
But you can′t just sit on the fence
It′s true

I know I have been mispriced
I have been mispriced
Chipped and then deviced
Tagged and rinsed for lice
There's never a warning
I needed a warning
I try to be content
But I′m tight in the chest


(Echo, mini, nilla, wafer, echo, mini, nilla, wafer) so give us what we want)
(Echo, mini, nilla, wafer, echo, mini, nilla, wafer)
(Echo, mini, nilla, wafer, echo, mini)

Please give us what we want (super! super! super! super!)
(Super! super! super! super! super! super!)
Over 200 miles of turnpike (super! super! super! super!)
3000 miles of goods! (super! super! super! super!)

Would you like to add a protein?
Would you like to ask me about my day rates?

I need a new body
I need a new party
To represents my needs, ah
Yeah my distance is growing
But so is the longing
Which leaves the in between

So this is the end
Or near to the end
Let's say goodbye to our beautiful friend
Staggered and blind on the rack on the mend
Let′s close the eyes of our beautiful friend

So I need a new love and
I need a new body
To push away the end
To the water we send you

Dim that light in your eyes
Coming out of your eyes
People can see it
When it pierces the veil
The pink ones at night
When it gets too much
Otherwise too much noise

If you look up
Block out the periphery
The earth and trees surround you
Framing your escape
Into the sky
Into the stars
Leaving the ground
You feel your feet let go

The air a bit cooler now
Thinner in the lungs
Cleaner in the mouth
And you know what they all say
"Don't look down"
"Don′t look down"
But they also always say
Selfish, by the bed

"Don't go to the light"
"Don't go to the light"
"Don′t go to the light"
"Don′t go to the light"
Well, go into the light
Go into the light
Go into the light
Go into the light
