Graceland - The New Pornographers

Countdown to zero, to zero

I am listening

Through the walls, not at all

What I thought I was missing

In my case there is something in the will to escape life at last

As we ride into the sun safe we burst into flames

I don’t know, I don’t know how you missed us

Rolling by, rolling by like the three ghosts of Christmas

In my life this will happen to a boy every time, the perfect crime

Which as everybody knows pays just fine

So pay my way into Graceland

To Graceland

Pay my way into Graceland

We’re even, we’re even

Lights out and the first of your circuits is broken

Tell the post, good to go, set it, give into motion

In my life this will happen to a boy every time

The perfect crime which everybody knows pays just fine

So pay my way into Graceland

To Graceland

Pay my way into Graceland

We’re even, we’re even

So pay my way into Graceland

To Graceland

Pay my way into Graceland

We’re even, we’re even
