Los Campesinos!
Got Stendhal’s
[Verse 1]
Got Stendhal's bad, it struck me dumb
Venus in steel toes with fake furs in hand
Your doorstep, first place podium
I stood in awe, carrier bag of cans
Two puckered lips and a t-shirt suntan

[Chorus]
I assembled former ghosts at a seance
Said I missed 'em, you only have to say it once
What I truly fear, maybe selfishly
When I finally rest, someone will summon me

[Verse 2]
In time a monument will cast
Two shadows in the middle of a square
Mistold when thousand years have passed
As Clima-Fit suit, as towelling bridal wear
Four puckered lips and some vows to swear

[Chorus]
I assembled former ghosts at a seance
Said I missed 'em, you only have to say it once
What I truly fear, maybe selfishly
When I finally rest, someone will summon me
I assembled former ghosts at a seance
Said I missed 'em, you only have to say it once
What I truly fear, maybe selfishly
When I finally rest, someone will summon me
[Bridge]
I don't know, I don't wanna know now
Trusted heart pumps blood around a monolith that lets me down
I don't wanna know, I don't wanna know
I don't know, I don't wanna know now
Trusted heart pumps blood around a monolith that lets me down
I don't wanna know, I don't wanna know
I don't know
I don't wanna know, I don't wanna know

[Refrain]
At least when we're encased in concrete, we'll be safe
At least when we're encased in concrete, we'll be safe
At least when we're encased in concrete, we'll be safe
At least when we're encased in concrete, we'll be safe
At least when we're encased in concrete, we'll be safe
At least when we're encased in concrete, we'll be safe
We'll be safe

[Chorus]
I assembled former ghosts at a seance
Said I missed 'em, you only have to say it once
What I truly fear, maybe selfishly
When I finally rest, someone will summon me
I assembled former ghosts at a seance
Said I missed 'em, you only have to say it once
What I truly fear, maybe selfishly
When I finally rest, someone will summon me
