Craig Finn - This Is What It Looks Like Lyrics
Official




There was music in the plazas
And a lifting of the fear
When we pressed ourselves together
Then our God was nowhere near
All the drinking left us legless
So we slithered through the streets
The car alarms they cussed us out
The birds put us to sleep

She said, "Hold on (hold on)
Do you think that we're in danger?
If we push it any further?
Do you think that we'll be damaged
If we don't what they say?"

I said, "Baby, don't you worry about
A couple broken windows"
That's just what it looks like when we're joyful
Crowding into bathrooms
And tipping over tables
That's just what it looks like when we're joyful

We could get out of the city
We could drive up to the valley
But if you do I think that we'll discover
The parkways all have barricades
They're checking on each driver
It's such a funny time to become lovers

They said, "Wait up (wait up)
We'd like to see your papers
To see if you're a danger
To see if you'll do damage
If you don't do what we say"

I said, "Mister, don't you worry about
A couple missing pistols"
Things just disappear when we feel playful
When we get up on the table
You shouldn't act so startled
This is what it looks like when we're joyful

And I'm almost feeling sorry
For the rangers with their rifles
You can't get to heaven being hateful
With our eyes back in their sockets
And a mess of broken bottles
That's just what it looks like when we're joyful

Sometimes when we celebrate
It looks just like we're pulling things apart
All the hissing in the whispers
When we press ourselves together in the dark

There's a house out in the valley
And it used be a church
We went up there for a party
And I met her on the porch
She took me to the wheelhouse
Washed away my doubts
She handed me a pamphlet
And it laid this whole thing out

It said, "Hold up (hold up)
Are you scared about the future?
Would you want to live forever?
Do you think that you can manage?
Do exactly what I say"

And it was nice to finally feel a little something
It was nice to finally feel a little something
It was nice to finally feel a little something

This is what it looks like when we're joyful (this is what it looks like when we're joyful)
This is what it looks like when we're joyful (this is what it looks like when we're joyful)
This is what it looks like when we're joyful (this is what it looks like when we're joyful)
This is what it looks like when we're joyful (this is what it looks like)
