Butter Teeth Lyrics & Chords By The Mountain Goats

we spilled out through the front door
into the blinding late light
sun reflected on the storefront windows
tremendously bright
we were norwegians come down from the north
attacking the walls of the fortress
i was permanently at the point of exhaustion
you were gorgeous
who's here? just us
nobody else around
stray electrical currents
trying to find the ground
we haunted the walls of the pharmacy
artlessly shoplifting random things
pain killers, cough syrup, tiger balm
bubble gum, cigarettes, and shower curtain rings
we were portuguese warships cresting the waves
cannons raised, ready to dock
you were counting down the hours and the minutes
i was trying to find a way of stopping the clock
who's here? just us
nobody else around
stray electrical currents
trying to find the ground
