Letra da Música Bright Blue Tie de The Fiery Furnaces

On my first day in town we saw the king
He was dressed in a suit with a bright blue tie
And it matched his eyes
And when ours met I sighed

Took a boat or a ferry to an island
There were gardens and trees and balloons in the sky
And we knew it was right

It wasn't only the light
Rode our bikes up and down the streets so wide
Don't lock 'em up no they'll be just fine
And I said Oh my, my
I can't believe it! I cried

This must be paradise
But it's not, no, no, no, no
But it's sweet, sweet, sweet, sweet, sweet, oh Sweden

Had a breakfast of cheese, yogurt too
All this fat but you're so skinny to boot
I said it's in my genes
Yeah we're so skinny we're mean

Took the train everyday from your suburb yeah right
Only ten minutes and we're south centre tonight
And we don't have to pay
We sneak in free everyday

Schnapps on the house at the bars you like
Your friends stand in line and practise English all night
And I like them: they're nice
All so blonde & precise

This must be paradise
Oh it's not, no, no, no, no
But it's sweet, sweet, sweet, sweet, sweet, oh Sweden
