Eagle on a Pole-Conor Oberst

[00:01.52]Conor Oberst - Eagle On A Pole [00:17.49]Saw an eagle on a pole, [00:22.60]I think it was an eagle. [00:25.41] [00:26.79]Watched its' shadow fly 'cross the cement. [00:31.98] [00:35.23]And I woke up in the snow, [00:38.41]all the trees, and crowds, and people. [00:43.21] [00:44.02]No shirt, no shoes, no idea where they went. [00:49.67] [00:51.55]I followed the fenceline thin, [00:54.74]back where the yard begins [01:00.16]My woman, she stood crying like a man. [01:06.46] [01:10.33]Said, where have you been? [01:12.58] [01:14.70]Where have you been? [01:17.95]I thought you said that all of that was done. [01:23.37] [01:25.94]El Cielo es azul, [01:29.81]Just don't go telling anyone. [01:33.90] [01:38.89]Thought the kettle was a train. [01:42.88]Thought that Monday was a doorframe. [01:46.75] [01:47.43]Tried so hard to finally settle down. [01:52.55] [01:55.36]Heard the fire pop and snap. [01:59.23]Like a tack piano rag. [02:02.72] [02:03.72]I never could get used to happy sounds. [02:10.08] [02:11.14]Yeah, I hope the world's exposed. [02:15.32]A cruel and elaborate hoax. [02:19.69]It convinces me to walk without a cane. [02:26.31] [02:29.56]But what can you do? [02:31.49] [02:33.80]Child, what can you do? [02:36.17] [02:36.67]I always heard that what is done is done. [02:41.79] [02:44.60]El Cielo es azul, [02:48.40]Just don't go telling anyone. [02:52.36] [03:14.01]The past don't ever quit. [03:17.32] [03:18.01]There's boxes in the attic. [03:21.62] [03:22.62]Baby shoes and taxidermy dream. [03:28.00] [03:30.55]While the ashes of the dead, like a dandelion head, [03:38.48]explode and then are scattered by the breeze. [03:46.34]We're such a long way back to all the fun that we had. [03:54.14] [03:55.41]When nothing ever seemed to bother me. [04:01.95] [04:04.58]But what can you do? [04:06.39] [04:07.01]Brother, what can you do? [04:11.19]Sleep with the stars, and toil in the sun. [04:16.93] [04:19.73]El Cielo es azul, [04:23.74]Just don't go telling anyone. [04:26.92] [04:27.79]El Cielo es azul, [04:31.48]Just don't go telling anyone. [04:37.09] [04:37.84]
