Yo La Tengo - False Alarm lyrics

Album: Electr-O-Pura (1995)

Oh no, I think I am falling for a false alarm
Like an all-day 2nd stuck
Till you crunch the right arm
Well if I open my eyes, if I just pay attention to McNew
Well, I just held back
To listen to your cues
So it isn´t enough I never meant to hold you down
Waiting for the firestorm
Waiting for the false alarm

Well, is it really true? Well, I know, I mean I guess, uh, why not
Well is it really true, I do not know,
Too hard to figure out
I am going to mark my words, cross my eyes & stomp my feet
Cause I do not want you feeling bad, feeling bad, feeling
Worse than you do
Well, I will stand my ground, hide behind a fake smile
Think I will talk about smth else
Just for a little while

Aw, said it once, said it twice, said it - you can tell it is the same old tune
Straight down to the bitter end
Tell me when theres more to go there soon
It is going to hold my tongue in place, think about what to do
If you do not see nothing wrong this time
Well I am taking it out on you
