Don McPhee Songtext

von Maximo Park

Two men in a double bed
Shifting uncomfortably
Beneath the Virgin Mary and the Sacred Heart

Developing fluid
Suspended in the air
It just worked out this way

Dom had to leave
Like the soft snap of a shutter
Don wore a nautical cap
Maybe the grandkids got it

Further qualifications
Can cost you dearly
But lessons get learnt
And people even smile at funerals

Watersheddings and snowfall
Took almost every chance
It just worked out this way

Dom had to leave
Like the soft snap of a shutter
Don wore a nautical cap
Maybe the grandkids got it

My only history comes from the pictures I see
I've got the same memory as anyone else…
