The National People’s Scare Songtext
von Wolf Parade

Daughter, we stayed up all night
Hearts drowned in the hollow light
And saved them where rotten bears stood
Down there, there.

Dollar keeps me up at night
Cars sound like a ruined choir
And all the songs on God′s radio
Oh, why always


Thousand people scare was a lie
Birds called the country bears over
There, bear! Bear there!
Bear there, bear there, bear there, bear there
Bear there, bear.

Dollar, we stayed up all night
Hearts drowned in the hollow skies
Saying down by the rotten bears
Bear there then

Daughter keeps me up at night
Cars sound like a ruined choir
The sounds of God's radio, why?

Thousand people scare was a lie
Birds caught the country bears over there, there, there, there
Bear there, bear there. Bear there, bear there
Bear there! Bear there.
