Separate (Separate EP) Songtext

von Hot Chip

I've been working my fingers to the bone
Just trying to turn you on
Now eight long years have gone
I think I know what's going wrong

Separate the head from the body (I need to)
Separate the head from the body (Take my)
Separate the head from the body (Oh)
Separate the head from the body

God gave you water for an empty cup
You gave a body that demands I suck (trying to be)
We make a mixture that is pure and tough (trying to be)
Lord give me something I do not fuck up

Trying to be all things to all men
Trying to be at the center of events
I just don't think you care
And you just want to dance the night away

So separate the head from the body (and dance with me)
Separate the head from the body (can you help me?)
Separate the head from the body (and dance with me)
Separate the head from the body

In this moment, be with me
In this moment, be with me
In this moment, be with me
In this moment

You gave me water when I showed my cup
You give a body that demands we suck
We make a mixture that is pure with love
Lord give me something I do not fuck up

The time for conspiracies
I think our music is enough for me
So you may think I'm dumb
But I'm tired of trying to mix politics and fun

Separate the head from the body (and dance with me)
Separate the head from the body (oh)
Separate the head from the body (and dance with me)
Separate the head from the body

Won't you tell me a story about when you were young?
When you lived for the moment, before life had begun
Won't you tell me a story about when you were young?
When you lived for the moment, before life had begun
Won't you tell me a story about when you were young?
When you lived for the moment, before life had begun
Won't you tell me a story about when you were young?
When you lived for the moment, before life had begun
