The day that we, took out a car in the rain
Is the day you forgot how to brake
And see, how quickly the picture will change
Filled with fingers and voices and teeth
I still remember holding my hand
Against your face just before it was splayed
Across the radio, as it played
And you and me are still as the scenery moves
Oh, why should it stop, just cause
Suddenly, theres one where there used to be two,
And everythings quiet but then
Looks like the speaker lived through the blow
Still playing some compilation you made
Feels like a lifetime sitting alone
So I start humming along to the tape
I always liked this singer, I remember
How you were the one who told me that her name
Was either Mia or M.I.A.
And I am thinking,
How many hours til Im home?
How long do I stay in this place?
Whos going to wash all the blood from my clothes?
Whos gonna cancel my date?
Whos gonna cancel my date?
And I think....
I always liked this singer, I remember
How you were the one who told me that her name
Was either Mia...
Oh I think...
I always liked this singer, I remember
How you were the one who told me that her name
Was either Mia, or M.I.A.
The day that we took out a car in the rain
I thought to myself that the sky was blue
As Id ever seen it but yet
Still tainted with red.....
I think it sounds particularly good if you choose a finger-picking pattern rather than
through the whole song.
I hope you all enjoy singing about car crashes as much as I do!
