Mischief Brew
Anti-Lullaby
We are bouncing and dancing as you sing your lullaby
Shouting "move" when you say "stay"
The tune of your flute is a rifle you shoot
That lays us all down to be brave
They love you we hate you
They made you we break you today
Breaking away
We are painting the walls
Making jokes out of laws
Hiding sleeping pills under our tongues
Shut the light, close the door, we spit them to the floor
Then we are humming and strumming and a' banging on drums
What did you know when you said we are wasting away?
How could you say?
How could you say we just waste away, waste away?
Big table not big enough
How could you say we just waste away, waste away?
Humming and strumming and banging, a' banging on drums
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
We will not be lulled into slumber by you
We will not be lulled into sleep
For we've had a taste of this wondrous place
And it's treasures we intended to keep
We will not be lulled into slumber
We will not be lulled into sleep
For we've had a taste of this wondrous place
And it's treasures we intended to keep
For we've had a taste of this wondrous place
And it's treasures we intended to keep
So now when they say we just waste away, waste away
You can say "Hey it's not so"
Why is it then that we're growing, and growing, and growing
And growing and showing them all what we know?
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
We will not be lulled into slumber by you
La-dadada
For we've had a taste of this wondrous place
La-dadada
We will not be lulled into sleep
For we've had a taste of this wondrous place
And it's treasures we intended to keep
For we've had a taste of this wondrous place
And it's treasures we intended to keep
