Icarus The Owl – Prague, 1842 lyrics
[Verse 1]
There was a hotel (hotel)
On the corner of
Broadway and Riviera
It's the seventh time (time, time)
They've driven by; (by)
I didn't think they had any reason why
[Pre-Chorus]
Ooh, You've set yourself up a crime
I'm the one who got you all out in time
You're no good at evil intentions
You're no good (x2)
[Chorus]
I put a man on the moon
And yet was the least of things that I could do
I swore a life of solitude
But you'll follow me until I submit to you
[Verse 2]
There was a hotel (hotel)
On the edge of town (town)
On the gulf of Alabama
It's the seventh time (time, time)
They've driven by; (by)
I didn't think they had any reason why
[Bridge]
I'll be gone by morning
I'll slip out unseen
You're a cigarette butt
Doused in gasoline
I'm all set for murder;
The doctor said I'm clean
What's happening to Valerie
Is happening to me
[Pre-Chorus]
Ooh, You've set yourself up a crime
I'm the one who got you all out in time
You're no good at evil intentions
You're no good (x2)
[Chorus]
I put a man on the moon
And yet was the least of things that I could do
I swore a life of solitude
But you'll follow me until I submit to you
[Refrain]
I don't mind what you do to me
But will you keep your hands off my legacy
It's too late they've taken her away
Keep your hands off my Valerie (Valerie)
[Pre-Chorus]
Ooh, You've set yourself up a crime
I'm the one who got you all out in time
You're no good at evil intentions
You're no good (x2)
[Chorus]
I put a man on the moon
And yet was the least of things that I could do
I swore a life of solitude
But you'll follow me until I submit to you
There was a hotel (hotel)
On the corner of
Broadway and Riviera
It's the seventh time (time, time)
They've driven by; (by)
I didn't think they had any reason why
[Pre-Chorus]
Ooh, You've set yourself up a crime
I'm the one who got you all out in time
You're no good at evil intentions
You're no good (x2)
[Chorus]
I put a man on the moon
And yet was the least of things that I could do
I swore a life of solitude
But you'll follow me until I submit to you
