Ariel Pink House Of Yesterday Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Look at the white man preparing for war
Takes  one look at his wife one last time
Look  at the white man declaring the war
Over and out like a jolly [?]

[Verse 2]
Look at the white man he's [?] the list
Look  at the poor boy, he's dead from his own war
Enjoy  the silence while the last men [?]
You know what belongs here, no one belongs, nothing belongs here

[Verse 3]
They  put me in a coffin and they buried me in a trench
I'm dying like a maggot, can't even smell the stench
They put my love life on life support
They threw me in the dungeon like I never was born

And  no one belongs here
And no one belongs here
No one belongs here

[Chorus]
Something to save
An image you're painting in a house of yesterday (house of yesterday) Rip out the pages and set them ablaze
As you lay down in your grave (lay down in your grave)

Something to save
A vanishing grave yard in a house of yesterday (house of yesterday)
Rip out the pages and set them ablaze
As you lay down in your grave (lay down in your grave)

[Hook]
Yesterday
Yesterday
Yesterday

[Chorus]
Something to save
An image you're painting in a house of yesterday (house of yesterday)
Rush inside
There's always tomorrow as you lay down in your grave (lay down in your grave)

Something to save
An image you're painting in a house of yesterday (house of yesterday)
Rip out the pages and set them ablaze
As you lay down in your grave (lay down in your grave)
