Anti-Lullaby
We are bouncing and dancing as you sing your lullaby,
Shouting "move" when you say "stay".
The tune of your flute is a rifle you shoot.
That lays us all down to be brave.
They love you we hate you.
They made you we break you today.
Breaking away.
We are painting the walls.
Making jokes out of laws.
Hiding sleeping pills under our tongues.
Shut the light, close the door, we spit them to the floor.
Then we are humming and strumming and a' banging on drums.
What did you know when you said we are wasting away?
How could you say?
How could you say we just waste away, waste away?
Big table not big enough.
How could you say we just waste away, waste away?
Humming and strumming and banging, a' banging on drums.
Yeah yeah yeah yeah.
We will not be lulled into slumber by you.
We will not be lulled into sleep.
For we've had a taste of this wondrous place,
And it's treasures we intended to keep.
We will not be lulled into slumber.
We will not be lulled into sleep.
For we've had a taste of this wondrous place,
And it's treasures we intended to keep.
For we've had a taste of this wondrous place,
And it's treasures we intended to keep.
So now when they say we just waste away, waste away.
You can say "Hey it's not so".
Why is it then that we're growing, and growing, and growing,
and growing and showing them all what we know?
Yeah yeah yeah yeah.
We will not be lulled into slumber by you.
La-dadada
For we've had a taste of this wondrous place.
La-dadada
We will not be lulled into sleep.
For we've had a taste of this wondrous place,
And it's treasures we intended to keep.
For we've had a taste of this wondrous place,
And it's treasures we intended to keep.
Anti-cuna
Estamos rebotando y bailando mientras cantas tu canción de nana
Gritando «muévete» cuando dices «quédate
La melodía de tu flauta es un rifle que disparas
Eso nos deja a todos ser valientes
Te aman, te odiamos
Hicieron que te rompamos hoy
Rompiendo
Estamos pintando las paredes
Haciendo chistes fuera de las leyes
Escondiendo somníferos bajo nuestras lenguas
Cierra la luz, cierra la puerta, los escupimos al suelo
Entonces estamos tarareando y rasgueando y golpeando la batería
¿Qué sabías cuando dijiste que estábamos desperdiciando?
¿Cómo puedes decirlo?
¿Cómo puedes decir que nos desperdiciamos, desperdiciamos?
La mesa grande no es lo suficientemente grande
¿Cómo puedes decir que nos desperdiciamos, desperdiciamos?
Tarareando, rasgando y golpeando, golpeando la batería
Sí, sí, sí, sí
No seremos arrullados en el sueño por ti
No seremos arrullados para dormir
Porque hemos probado este maravilloso lugar
Y son tesoros que pretendimos conservar
No seremos adormecidos en el sueño
No seremos arrullados para dormir
Porque hemos probado este maravilloso lugar
Y son tesoros que pretendimos conservar
Porque hemos probado este maravilloso lugar
Y son tesoros que pretendimos conservar
Así que ahora cuando dicen que nos desperdiciamos, desperdiciamos
Puedes decir «Oye, no es así
¿Por qué es entonces que estamos creciendo, y creciendo, y creciendo
y crecer y mostrarles todo lo que sabemos?
Sí, sí, sí, sí
No seremos arrullados en el sueño por ti
La-Dadada
Porque hemos probado este maravilloso lugar
La-Dadada
No seremos arrullados para dormir
Porque hemos probado este maravilloso lugar
Y son tesoros que pretendimos conservar
Porque hemos probado este maravilloso lugar
Y son tesoros que pretendimos conservar
