Mmm... mmm... Ooh... ahh... [Verse] "Nigel said goodbye, here's a drink on me" Then he ghosted out of the 9:30 A few minutes later I'm in my car When I noticed how much like tadpoles carkeys are [Verse] Then metal turned alive, Carkeys wriggling like tadpoles in my palm Little gold frogs hopping across the dashboard Started the car, but I couldn't go home [Verse] And the buildings started singing to me Neon hymns in frequencies I’d never believed Never having moved, I let the engine die Couldn’t drive till the city ran out of lullabies La la la... lullabies Mmm... [Verse] Streetlights pulsing like blood in my veins Every window breathing colors of the beats I thought: maybe this is home now Live right here, parked, baptized in the city streets [Verse] Yeah the buildings kept singing to me Telling secrets in a language made of reverb and grief They convinced me I should be furious So I screamed at the skyline till my voice turned luminous [Bridge] I was pissed the buildings made me mad about it I was pissed the frogs wouldn’t give my keys back I was pissed the night tasted like forgiveness And I still couldn’t find the way in all the black Mmm... ooh... Ahh... ahh... [Outro] And the buildings sang The buildings kept on singing The buildings sang to me The buildings sang to me quietly The buildings sang The buildings kept on singing Mmm... ooh... Ahh... ahh... La la la... Mmm...
