Horns lyrics

I heard it from a little bird

Who gave me permission

The naughtiest words I ever heard

That will be posed on

Some girls, we need proof

Of real root awakening

To chase the dogs away

And notify another day

Cause the beat goes on

When our fire’s gone

Oh anything can sound absurd

Depends on how you say it

As long as you have the first word

The rest is what you make it

Some boys don’t mean to

The real root awakening

They know now what they say

So chase the dogs away

Because the beat goes on, yes it does, yes it does

And the fire’s gone, then the fire’s gone away

And the lights go down, when the lights go down, go down

When it burns right out

Who gave me permission

The smartest words I’ve ever heard

That the beats go on

Some boys don’t mean to

The real root awakening

They know now what they say

So chase the dogs away

Because the beat goes on, yes it does, yes it does

And the fire’s gone, then the fire’s gone away

And the lights go down, when the lights go down, go down

When it burns right out
