Look Up lyrics - Chairlift
When the limbs have all been shaken 'til there's no more fruit to bear
When the tiger's barely up to feed the sleepers at the wheel
When you run out pretending and there's nowhere left to run
But you keep running, running, running, running, running
Look up, hey
Look up, hey
Look up, hey
Look up, hey
Look up, hey
Look up, hey
And I heard we'll meet our end on bridges built across the sky
But when you say it, I believe you, and it almost sounds alright
Tell the losers, tell the winners, the same ship will bear us all
But all I want is to want nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing
Look up, hey
Look up, hey
Look up, hey
Look up, hey
Look up, hey
Look up, hey
Polymorphing lyrics - Chairlift
There's something better than what you're asking for
Kid, kid, tonight
Something better than what you're asking for
Kid, kid, tonight
Something better than what you're asking for
Kid, kid, tonight
Something better than what you're asking for
Kid, kid, kid, kid
I could not be more forgiving
Dr. Lucy, fancy living
Stick your shift in, polymorphing
Sound my guns when we're together
Shake a rain stick, guide the weather
Take the day off, I surrender
Oh darling
If this heart was a garden would you till it?
If this life was a pulse would you feel it?
If this love was a wound would you heal it?
There's something better than what you're asking for
Kid, kid, tonight
Something better than what you're asking for
Kid, kid, tonight
Something better than what you're asking for
Kid, kid, tonight
Something better than what you're asking for
Kid, kid, kid, kid
Fill her up with serotonin
Pyrotechnic, oxytocin
Overdosing, polymorphing
In the sense within the warzone
Undercover in the ozone
Bungee jumping on the upswing
Oh darling
If this heart was a garden would you till it?
If this life was a pulse would you feel it?
If this love was a wound would you heal it?
There's something better than what you're
Something better than what you're
Better than, better than, night
Kid, kid, kid, kid
There's something better than what you're
Something better than what you're
Better than, better than, night
Kid, kid, kid, kid
Heart, heart
Polymorphing
Oh darling
If this heart was a garden would you till it?
If this life was a pulse would you feel it?
If this love was a wound would you heal it?
Oh just make it better or something
There's something better than what you're
I do better than what you're
I do better than what you're
There's something better than what you're
I do better than what you're
Night
There's something better than what you're
I do better than what you're
Night
Kid, kid, kid, kid
I'm polymorphing
(Everybody just calm the fuck down)
I'm polymorphing
Polymorphing
Tonight
Tonight
Tonight
Romeo lyrics - Chairlift
On your marks
Get set!
Step up, lover
Big talker, take a number
I've got all day
To wipe the smile off your face
If I win, you're done with
But if you win, you win my heart
Isn't that what you want…
Hey Romeo
Put on your running shoes
I'm ready to go
Hey Romeo
Put on your running shoes
I'm ready to go
The only way he
Can catch up to me is to cheat
There is no veto
What's done is done once I am beat
So roll me, race me
With all your tricks and all your heart
I'm not wishing you luck…
Hey Romeo
Put on your running shoes
I'm ready to go
Hey Romeo
Put on your running shoes
I'm ready to go
On your mark
I'm gonna run 'til you give me a
Reason to stop
To fall on my knees
To need love
On your mark
I'm gonna run 'til you give me a
Reason to stop
To fall on my knees
To, to fall on my…
Hey Romeo
Put on your running shoes
I'm ready to go
Hey Romeo
Put on your running shoes
I'm ready to go
Ch-Ching lyrics - Chairlift
Ch-ching
Ch-ching
Ch-ching
Ch-ching
Nobody will help you 'til you go and help yourself
Take it and don't wait for it to come from someone else
I've got everything I need right here, between my hands
And there it is right in front of me...
Take a look at me
Who'd have thought I'd be
The one that got away with it
I got a way with it
They showed me a fantasy
I stole it for you and me
Tripped it, switch, flipped it
Slow dripped it, unzipped it
I flipped it
Getting what you want can be dangerous (uh-oh)
But that's the only way I want it to be
I double dare you to keep a secret (uh-oh)
And pass it back under the table to me
I put the stash in the bookshelf (uh-oh)
Open your mouth and I'll slip you the key
Now crack that combination (uh-oh)
Like 27-99-23
Ch-ching
Ch-ching
27-99-23
Ch-ching
Ch-ching
27-99-23
(Getting what you want can be dangerous)
Take a look at me
Who'd have thought I'd be
The one that got away with it
I got a way with it
They showed me a fantasy
I stole it for you and me
Tripped it, switch, flipped it
Slow dripped it, unzipped it
I flipped it
Getting what you want can be dangerous (uh-oh)
But that's the only way I want it to be
I double dare you to keep a secret (uh-oh)
And pass it back under the table to me
I put the stash in the bookshelf (uh-oh)

Ch-ching
27-99-23
Ch-ching
Ch-ching
27-99-23
If nobody sees it then nobody knows
I beg for forgiveness not permission
The music ain't playing 'til you listen
Getting what you want can be dangerous
But that's the only way I want it to be
I double dare you to keep a secret
And pass it back under the table to me
I put the stash in the bookshelf
Open your mouth and I'll slip you the key
Now crack that combination like 27-99-23
Ch-ching
Ch-ching
27-99-23
Ch-ching
Ch-ching
27-99-23
Ch-ching
Ch-ching
Oh

Crying In Public lyrics - Chairlift
Take all my defenses in two words
And throw them away
Tell me, what kind of monster
Have I been today?
But you smile and call me "tough guy"
To the opposite effect
It’s a flower in the gun
And your tough guy’s a wreck
Sorry I'm crying in public this way
I'm falling for you, I'm falling for you
I'm sorry I'm causing a scene on the train
I'm falling for you, I'm falling for you
Love will be the bridge
Over the sand
Love will be the key
From hand to hand
Like the peach you split open
With two thumbs
I'm the half without a stone
And my heart is a hollow
With a space for your own
(or whatever you want to do with it)
And I’m blaming all beauty upon you
From the birds at my feet
To the breakdancing boys
And their boomboxes' beat, beat, beat
Sorry I'm crying in public this way
I'm falling for you, I'm falling for you
I'm sorry I'm causing a scene on the train
I'm falling for you, I'm falling for you
Love will be the bridge
Over the sand
Love will be the key
From hand to hand
Each autumn leaf and passing breath
Each antidote to sudden death
And there we are
And who'd've guessed
That there it is, just like that
Forgive me
Sorry I'm crying in public this way
I'm falling for you, I'm falling for you
I'm sorry I'm causing a scene on the train
I'm falling for you, I'm falling for you
Love will be the bridge
Over the sand
Love will be the key
From hand to hand
Ottawa To Osaka lyrics - Chairlift
Ottawa to Osaka
The lesson to learn
Racing beyond the islands of desire and time
Ottawa to Osaka
And left to move you up
Chasing the rising tide, I am
The light at your side
All we need is guns and mortar, gasoline and a stick of butter
Now, everyone's asking why we don't look back, foreigners
Now, everyone's asking why we do not talk like foreigners
All we need is mascara
Incognito tuxedo
Now, everyone's asking why we don't look back, foreigners
Now everyone's asking why we up and left for
Ottawa to Osaka
The lesson to learn
Racing beyond the islands of desire and time
Now everyone is asking why we do not walk like them
Everyone is asking why we do not talk like them
Everyone is asking why we do not walk like them
Everyone is asking why we do not talk like them
Everyone is asking why we do not walk like them
Everyone is asking why we do not talk like them
Everyone is asking why we do not walk like them
Ottawa to Osaka
A lesson to learn
Racing beyond the islands of desire and time
Ottawa to Osaka
A lesson to learn
I am the operator of the marmelade sky
Moth To The Flame lyrics - Chairlift
I can't help it I'm a moth to the flame
I can't help it I'm a moth to the flame
I can't help it I'm a moth to the flame
I can't help it I'm a, a
He's that kinda man, mama
I should know better than to take your love letters to heart
When the game's already lost before it starts
Hope hides inside a cliche
Like a nod of understanding
From the power who first felt this way
How can I turn away?
I can't help it I'm a moth to the flame
I can't help it I'm a moth to the flame
I can't help it I'm a moth to the flame
I can't help it I'm a, a
He's that kinda man, mama
But every little pull at the end of the golden rope
Fills my foolish heart with foolish hope
That maybe you might feel the same
As if feeling the same was the name of the game
The name of the game
I shouldn't be playing
I can't help it I'm a moth to the flame
I can't help it I'm a moth to the flame
I can't help it I'm a moth to the flame
I can't help it I'm a, a
He's that kinda man, mama
Close enough, close enough
Close enough to you, I can't get
Close enough, close enough
Close enough to you, I can't get
Close enough, close enough
Close enough to you, I can't get
I shouldn't be playing
Close enough, close enough
Close enough to you, I can't get
I can't help it I'm a moth to the flame
I can't help it I'm a moth to the flame
I can't help it I'm a moth to the flame
I can't help it I'm a, a
Close enough, close enough
Close enough to you, I can't get
Close enough, close enough
Close enough to you, I can't get
Close enough, close enough
Close enough to you, I can't get
Close enough, close enough
Close enough to you, I can't get
He's that kinda man, mama
Show U Off lyrics - Chairlift
Take a break from the wooing mountains, I wanna show you off
Laying low at home, whatever, I wanna show you off
To the boys who think they're clever, I wanna show you off
So that they see who's finally saying yes to you
You can trust this, you can have this
Not playing a game
I wanna let this, go public and not be ashamed
Whoo, they don't make them like you anymore (No, no)
Cause if you got it like we got it
If it's real, and if you want it babe
Show it off
Let us see how you get on
Roll the window down to flaunt it babe
Show it off
Show it off
See, I can be a discrete lover but, I wanna show you off
Can't get this undercover (like the showing better)
If you wanna bring your boys around
Then you can show me off too
You can trust this, you can have this
Not playing a game
I wanna preach this, unleash this, and not be ashamed
Whoo, they don't make them like you anymore
So take a second, take a minute
Cause if you got it like we got it
If it's real, and if you want it babe
Show it off
Let us see how you get on
Roll the window down to flaunt it babe
Show it off
Show it off
I-I-I'm past the point of asking why
Why I-I-I, why I let the whole world know you're mine
Cause if you got it like we got it
If it's real, real
Let us see how you get on
Roll the window down to flaunt it babe
Show it off
Show it off
Cause if you got it like we got it
If you got it like we do
Hey, if it's real, be real
Gotta see if you're down, down, down
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
So be real
Let us see how you get down
Unfinished Business lyrics - Chairlift
I told you I have to go
Not pretend I really know
I've got mad to get to the center of the storm
If your name still carved into my bones
My sister pill, wind in the sale
Calls me senseless to her side
But on the place between the trains
You'll be a star within my sky
Unfinished business
Unfinished business
I'm not finished with this
This thing between just you and I
But for now don't wait for me
Cause I'll see you in my dreams
You'll be wearing red and I'll be wearing green
But for now don't wait for me
Unfinished business
Unfinished business
I'm not finished with this
This thing between just you and me
The rocks we sat on
They are still there right now
They are still there right now
Unfinished business
Unfinished business
I'm not finished with this
This thing between just you and me
No Such Thing As Illusion lyrics - Chairlift
There's no such thing as illusion
There's no such thing as illusion
There's no such thing as illusion
There's no such thing as illusion
There's no such thing
There's no such thing as illusion
To walk around in circles
And now I have the story straight
I'm running down a mountain
Tears of gold running down my head
To wake up from a nightmare
To your warm, familiar face
I will love again, be as simple
As your hand wrapped around my waist
After all I thought I wanted
Ripped in two, all on display
After all your [?]
To lose but walk away
And after all the crying is all less
You won't come free
You know the status quo in nature
The strong eat the weak
Tonight the expectations
Were lost along the way
After all I ever needed
Was your arm around my waist
There's no such thing as illusion
There's no such thing as illusion
There's no such thing as illusion
There's no such thing as illusion
There's no such thing
There's no such thing as illusion
Don't tell me that it's fleeting
Don't tell me it's a honeymoon
Don't tell me that this feeling
Comes and goes, yeah I know what they say
This ain't no new car leather
There's no returning if it breaks
It can be everlasting
Just don't go when I get the shakes
After all I thought I wanted
Ripped in two, put on display
After all I ever needed
Was your arm around my waist
There's no such thing as illusion
There's no such thing as illusion
There's no such thing as illusion
There's no such thing as illusion
There's no such thing
There's no such thing as illusion
Get Real lyrics - Chairlift
Stop looking at me that way
Cause next thing I know there goes the day
Good for nothing when you're around
I can't tell which way's up or down
Do you believe in mercy?
Then forgive me for me
And though I don't deserve it
When you hold me, I'm free
Are you just a sweet talking girl
Calling the white roses red
'Til I've lost everything
Even the thoughts in my head
Baby, get real
Get real, real, real, real
Real, real, real, real
Stopping traffic to kiss me
We're a threat to normalcy
But is there more to you than sweet?
There's only so much candy I can eat
Do you believe in mercy?
Then forgive me for me
And though I don't deserve it
When you hold me I'm free, like...
Are you just a sweet talking girl
Calling the white roses red
'Til I've lost everything
Even the thoughts in my head
Baby, get real
Get real, real, real, real
Real, real, real, real
Real, real
Just as I approach the top
Put me out of business, close up shop
Over the cliff, the deepest drop
From fast, fast forward to total stop
Do you believe in mercy...
You're just a sweet talking girl
Calling the white roses red
And I've lost everything
Even the thoughts in my head
Baby get real
Is this an act that you're giving up?
Baby, get real
