This week’s song: Eucalyptus by The National

LYRICS

What about the glass dandelions?
What about the TV screen?
What about the undeveloped camera?
Maybe we should bury these

What about the last of the good ones?
What about the ceilin’ fans?
What if we moved back to New York?
What about the moon drop light?

You should take it, ’cause I’m not gonna take it
You should take it, I’m only going to break it
You should take it, ’cause I’m not gonna take it
You should take it, you should take it

What about the rainbow eucalyptus?
What about the instruments?
What about the cowboy junkies?
What about the Afghan Whigs?

What about the mountain valley spring?
What about the ornaments?
What if I reinvented again?
What about the moon drop light?

You should take it ’cause I don’t want to take it
You should take it, I’m only going to break it
You should take it, ’cause I’m not going to take it
You should take it, you should take it

You should take it, ’cause I’m not gonna take it
You should take it, if miss it, I’ll visit
You should take it, ’cause I’m not going to take it
You should take it, you should take it

I don’t want it
I don’t care
I don’t want it

It wouldn’t be fair
It’d be so alone
Without you there
It wouldn’t be fair

It wouldn’t be fair
There’s nobody home
I’m already there
It wouldn’t be fair

You should take it, ’cause I’m not going to take it
You should take it, I’m only going to break it
You should take it, ’cause I’m not going to take it
You should take it, you should take it

You should take it, ’cause I’m not going to take it
You should take it, if I miss it, I’ll visit
You should take it, ’cause I’m not going to take it
You should take it

It wouldn’t be fair
It’d be so alone
Without you there
It wouldn’t be fair

It wouldn’t be fair
There’s nobody home
I’m already there
It wouldn’t be fair
