Come On, Illinois - Houndmouth

Come on, Illinois

There’s a fire in the city

We’re making noise

You’re burning bright and pretty

It’s a long way just to make it to the borderline

Jawbone in a box

A political action committee

Take what you know

Throw it down the goddamn privy

It’s a long way just to make it to the borderline

Vivian, you’ve been a bad girl

You took your mother’s lantern and you dropped it in the farmhouse

And you burnt down the city

Oh you pretty young girl

Well you never had a chance

Built your house on a drawbridge

You thought it would protect you but the flames they travel fast here

And they’re coming out to get you

Oh you pretty young girl

Well you never had a chance

And it’s a long way just to make it to the borderline

And it’s a long way just to make it to the borderline
