Let Me Listen In On You - Yeasayer

They’re slippin' through the holes again

Those fire ants, they bite

They don’t make love like we used to

We don’t read by candlelight

And I’ll watch out for you, my friend

If you keep an eye on my place while I’m out of town

And memorize this handshake so I’ll know

You need to be put down

I’d like to help you but my hands are tied

Don’t look so nervous, you’ve got nothin' to hide

I can make your dreams come true

If you let me listen in on you

Let me listen in on you

Diggin' through the bottles and the cans alone

I didn’t mean to slice my fingers to the bone

I’m kind of high from your lullaby

I won’t admit the reason why

I’d like to help you but my hands are tied

Don’t look so nervous, you’ve got nothin' to hide

I can make your dreams come true

If you let me listen in on you

I can make your dreams come true

If you let me listen in on you

Let me listen in on you

Have you seen the big guns in the bay?

The evil that men do in picture books, we call them brave

Do you need a translator to get you through your day?

They’re primed and ready to come out of their caves

Do you need a translator?

Do you need a translator?

Do you need a translator?

Do you need a translator?

I’d like to help you but my hands are tied

Don’t look so guilty, you’ve got nothin' to hide

I can make your dreams come true

If you let me listen in on you

I can make your dreams come true

If you let me listen in on you

Let me listen in on you
