Bloodless - Andrew Bird

[00:00.170]
[00:29.949]They're profiting from your worry
[00:35.853]They're selling blanks down at the DMZ
[00:41.391]They're banking on the sound and fury
[00:46.772]Makes you wonder what it all's got to do with me
[00:51.657]Bloodless for now
[00:53.695]
[01:04.849]I'm keeping mine with the altruists
[01:10.648]I'm putting my weight behind the dancer
[01:16.421]I know it's hard to be an optimist
[01:21.828]When you trust least the ones who claim to have the answers
[01:26.922]And it's an uncivil war
[01:32.304]It's an uncivil war
[01:38.207]It's an uncivil war
[01:44.189]Bloodless for now
[01:46.906]And the poets, they explode like bombs
[01:50.328](Bloodless for now)
[01:52.000]While the gentry is drinking Moet Chandon
[01:56.101](Bloodless for now)
[01:58.165]Turn around and quote a well known psalm
[02:02.684]Don't you worry 'bout the wicked
[02:08.640]Don't you envy those who do wrong
[02:13.473]And your innocence will be like the dawn
[02:20.055]While the justice of your cause will shine like the noonday sun
[02:29.877]
[03:13.215]Well, the best lack all conviction
[03:19.066]And the worst keep sharpening their claws
[03:25.571]They're peddling in their dark fictions
[03:30.691]While what's left of us, well, we just hem and we haw
[03:36.046]And it feels like 1936
[03:41.662]In Catalonia
[03:47.618]In Catalonia
[03:53.025]Bloodless for now
[03:57.962]
[04:04.885]Bloodless for now
[04:07.967]And the poets, they explode like bombs
[04:11.389](Bloodless for now)
[04:13.740]Drinking Moet Chandon
[04:17.319](Bloodless for now)
[04:19.513]Turn around and quote a well known psalm
[04:24.111]Don't you worry 'bout the wicked
[04:29.153]Don't you envy those who do wrong
[04:34.743]And your innocence will be like the dawn
[04:40.829]While the justice of your cause will shine like the noonday sun
[04:49.476]
