Karen (Explicit)

Karen (Explicit) - The National

Written by：Bryce Dessner

Karen I'm not taking sides

I don't think

I'll ever do that again

I'll end up winning and

I won't know why

I'm really trying to shine here

I'm really trying

You're changing clothes and closing windows on me all the time

Well whatever you do listen you better wait for me

No I wouldn't go out alone into

America Whatever you do listen you better wait for me

No I wouldn't go out alone

Karen we should call your father maybe

It's just a phase

He'll know the trick to get a wayward

Soul to change his ways

It's a common fetish for a doting man

To ballerina on the coffee table cock in hand

Well whatever you do listen you better wait for me

No I wouldn't go out alone into

America Whatever you do listen you better wait for me

No I wouldn't go out alone

Without warm water in my head

All I see is black and white and red

I feel mechanical and thin

Hear me play my violin again

I'm living in the target's shoes

All I see is black and white and blue

Idle idle idle idle protect the nest

Protect the title

Karen put me in a chair f**k me

And make me a drink

I've lost direction and

I'm past my peak

I'm telling you this isn't me no this isn't me

Karen believe me you just haven't

Seen my good side yet

Well whatever you do listen you better wait for me

No I wouldn't go out alone into

America Whatever you do listen you better wait for me

No I wouldn't go out alone

Without warm water in my head

All I see is black and white and red

I feel mechanical and thin

Hear me play my violin again

I'm living in the target's shoes

All I see is black and white and blue

Idle idle idle idle protect the nest

Protect the title

I must be me

I'm in my head

Black birds are circling my bed

I must be me

I must be me

Black feathers of falling on my feet

Idle idle idle idle protect the nest

Protect the title

Idle idle idle idle protect the nest

Protect the title
