Dog Days Are Over

Happiness, it hurt like a train on a track
Coming towards her, stuck still no turning back
She hid around corners and she hid under beds
She killed it with kisses and from it she fled
With every bubble she sank with a drink
And washed it away down the kitchen sink
The dog days are over
The dog days are done
The horses are coming so you better run
Run fast for your mother run fast for your father
Run for your children and your sisters and brothers
Leave all your love and your loving behind you
Can't carry it with you if you want to survive
The dog days are over
The dog days are done
Can't you hear the horses
Cuz here they come
And I never wanted anything from you
Except everything you had
And what was left after that too. oh.
Happiness it hurt like a bullet in the mind
Stuck them up drainpipes
By someone who should know better than that
The dog days are over
The dog days are gone
Can you hear the horses
Cuz here they come
Run fast for your mother and fast for your father
Run for your children for your sisters and brothers
Leave all your love and your loving behind you
Can't carry it with you if you want to survive
The dog days are over
The dog days are gone
Can you hear the horses because here they come
The dog days are over
The dog days are gone
Can you hear the horses because here they come
By the lovely Florence and the Machine
My power just came back on about an hour ago, it went out at 2am and the heat and violent thunder and lightning kept me from any kind of beauty sleep. An as soon as the power came back on I realized I was too restless to curl up in bed with my cool operator. Leave it to me to blog late at night and early in the morning but never in the afternoon! I'm all set up on facebook now, I've had a myspace since freshman year of high school and since I just graduated I figured it was time to step my game up. So by now you know I'm obsessed with a little E4 show called Skins and I mentioned before all the great tunes that get played on the show, well Florence and the Machine played during season 3 and I fell head over heals so to speak in love with her! Dog Days Are Over is my favourite song and the lyrics are lovely which is why I've included them in this post. I also LOVE the song Girl with one Eye! So check out her CD people!!!
