Why - If I were young!
so I've noticed a lot of traffic hitting my blog due to the fact that I named it after a very popular Beirut song(see below). Seemingly a few of you out there appreciate the lyrics of one Zach Condron (Irish surname *by* the way!). so over the next few days I'll try to transcribe my understanding of the lyrics for The Elephant Gun as I hear them...This will take time as he over samples his voice in a few places during the song! Plus he likes to sing like he's taken a shot or two of whiskey...
Seemingly the young lad is quite fond of whiskey..Or so he claimed when I saw him play Glastonbury in 2007.
The Elephant gun
If I was young I'd flee this town,
I'd bag my dreams, underground,
As did I, we drink to die,
We drink to ni-i-i-ight!
Far from home, the elephant gun,
is takes them down, one by one
but lay it down, its not been found, its not around
let the seasons begin,and all was right
let the seasons begin, take the done
let the seasons begin, when the world was right
let the seasons begin,
