Andalucia
[Verse 1]
The rattlesnakes and fireflies are stranded at the border
Between you and me
And the static on the radio
Is preaching to the children of infinity
[Verse 2]
We stay up late to speak in tongues
And redefine the boundaries of sanity
Swaying to the sound of "Sister Ray"
But we never knew
How vulnerable we were
[Chorus]
Andalucia
I know you've been around
You're crazy girl
Andalucia
Your hands are on the wheel
But you're slipping
[Verse 3]
The greener grass we traded
For the mysteries of skinny hips and confidence
Where the literary casualties were cool
'Cause souls were hewn from vowels and consonants
[Verse 4]
Stabbed in the eyes by the spectacle of "Up the Beach"
And we never knew
How vulnerable we were
No, we never knew
We never knew
[Bridge]
That things get shattered
Things get shaken
Things get battered
And things forsaken
Things get spent
And things get spoken
Things get bent
And things get broken
[Hook]
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
[Chorus]
Andalucia
I know you've been around
You're crazy girl
Andalucia
I know you've been around
You're crazy girl
Oh
Andalucia
Your hands are on the wheel
But you're slipping
You're slipping
Andalucia
I know you've been around
You're crazy girl
