Tanya Donelly › Lyrics › Mysteries of the Unexplained

I heard a song
I heard the saddest song on WSUK
They play it every other hour
Of every other day
'Cause the greaser sent them
T's and toys for regular airplay

All your heroes are whores
All your heroes
'Cause it's a Tinkertoy world
Wouldn't buy a chance to leave it

'Cause sometimes
It rains fish from the sky
And the statues all start to cry
And someone writes another beautiful song

And anyway I predict the next
Meteor hit will be a monster
Will be a monster
I cried for a while
I am looking forward to it

I saw a movie
I saw the saddest film
Where everyone got killed
And the crowd went wild
I didn't understand the end
I couldn't spot the good guy

All your heroes are whores
All your heroes
'Cause it's a Tinkertoy world
Wouldn't buy a chance to leave it
Yeah, it's a Tinkertoy world
Wouldn't buy a chance to go

'Cause sometimes
It rains fish from the sky
And the statues all start to cry
And someone writes another beautiful song

And anyway I predict the next
Meteor hit will be a monster
Will be a monster
And I cried for a while
I am looking forward to it

I had a dream a shining bright city
Perfect and clean
I made a wish for a sky full of fish
