Hum – Dreamboat lyrics

You swore the earth was round,
And you said that there was no upside down.
I hit the starship's left,
Let the parallax flip like you showed me in the lighthouse.
I did the math and it came up ones and O's.

I know a girl who makes me shine,
My dreamboat's leaving on a submarine,
She packed a second set of tanks and all I ever want or need.
I know a girl who makes me whine,
While my dreamboat scatters all the sub-machines,
She packed a second set of tanks and all I ever want or need.

And you swore the earth was sound,
And you said that we could go upside the ground.
But the starfish sends in a message in code
That you can't see from the lighthouse.
And we will dive in the afternoon.

I took a simple time to wander,
Engaging twilight through the trees.
And she needs help among the kelp-ways,
And I'm not tied to these, no I'm not tied to these.

I know a girl who makes me shine,
My dreamboat's leaving on a submarine,
She packed a second set of tanks and a solar powered lung for me.
And to the girl who makes me whine,
While my dreamboat scatters all the sub-machines,
She packed a second set of tanks
And all I ever want or need, for me, for me, for me.
