Thank You Mario but Our Princess Is in Another Castle Songtext
von The Mountain Goats

I waited here all by myself.
The room was dark and it smelled like sulfur.
I heard the screams from way down in the darkness;
felt pretty sure my life was over.
I kept my hat on just for luck,
sang simple tunes the whole night through.
I wondered if I′d wake to find myself in flames
as I waited here for you.


Yeah, when you came
in
I could breathe again.

I saw some guys dressed up like sorcerers;
blue robes that float above the ground.
They came and went and I was frightened for my life.
I tried not to make a sound.
Just when my solitude was closing in
I heard a howl like screeching tires,
and I told you the one thing I know how to say
through the bright ringing drone of 8-bit choirs.


Yeah, when you came
in
I could breathe again.
