Dirty Projectors
Offspring Are Blank
[Vocal Intro]

[Verse 1]
There was a single one
Then there were ten
With time, made a hundred
And a hundred million

You came and spoke to me
I saw your face
Your words were like raindrops
From a storm in a vase

Each generation different

[Hook]
He was made to love her
She was made to love him
And their offspring love them

[Verse 2]
And in the marriage of
Eagle and snake
The parents are fertile
But the offspring is blank
The fire rages and
All through the night
The flame is contagious
But the heat feels all right

Can't recognize our poverty

[Hook]
He was made to love her
She was made to love him
And their offspring love them

[Verse 3]
There is a darkness I
Feel comin' down
And shadows that lengthen
From the sky to the ground

And a silence that can swallow sound

[Hook]
He was made to love her
She was made to love him
And their offspring love them

He was made to love her
She was made to love him
And their offspring love both of them
