- Swing Baby! Lyrics / with translationsWhen they turn the lights out
Faces in the shadow
When they turn the latch in
Tapping at your window
Skinny up out of your bedroom
Shimmy up on the drainpipe
Stand tall in the rooftop
And let slip into the night
Would you surrender to despair?
Or go on as if you're unawares?
Would you let ‘em tear apart you mind?
Or would you come running with our kind?
Tell me what would you do
If I told you
That they lied to you
And all the things they said
Just wasn't true?
Tell me what would you do?
Swing Baby!
And they'll hate you for what you are boy
And they'll say you oughtta be ashamed
They'll lock you in the pantry
Till you learn how to behave
But days of ash and cider
Are the good boy's last reward
Cause once they've got you where they want you
They don't want you anymore!
Tell me what would you do
If I told you
That they lied to you
And all the things they said
Just wasn't true?
Tell me what would you do?
Swing Baby!
Swing Baby!
Would you surrender to despair?
Or go on as if you're unawares?
Would you let ‘em tear apart you mind?
Or would you come running with our kind?
Tell me what would you do
If I told you
That they lied to you
And all the things they said
Just wasn't true?
Tell me what would you do?
Swing Baby!
Swing Baby!
Swing Baby!
Swing Baby
Faces in the shadow
When they turn the latch in
Tapping at your window
Skinny up out of your bedroom
Shimmy up on the drainpipe
Stand tall in the rooftop
And let slip into the night
Would you surrender to despair?
Or go on as if you're unawares?
Would you let ‘em tear apart you mind?
Or would you come running with our kind?
Tell me what would you do
If I told you
That they lied to you
And all the things they said
Just wasn't true?
Tell me what would you do?
Swing Baby!
And they'll hate you for what you are boy
And they'll say you oughtta be ashamed
They'll lock you in the pantry
Till you learn how to behave
But days of ash and cider
Cause once they've got you where they want you
They don't want you anymore!
Tell me what would you do
If I told you
That they lied to you
And all the things they said
Just wasn't true?
Tell me what would you do?
Swing Baby!
Swing Baby!
Would you surrender to despair?
Or go on as if you're unawares?
Would you let ‘em tear apart you mind?
Or would you come running with our kind?
Tell me what would you do
If I told you
That they lied to you
And all the things they said
Just wasn't true?
Tell me what would you do?
Swing Baby!
