above the sound

Singer:yo la tengo

what if we're too black and blue

to spot our latest bruise

me and you

the heavy bag

for here for now

for us one thing to do

see if this'll work for you

cry and hue

let's push our way

above the sound

over sideways down

above the sound

over sideways down

above the sound

what if we bear it with a grin

to take it on the chin

me and you

point one way

for the ground

for all our heads may spin

see if we can look within

to find another way

above the sound

word gets round

goin' down

above the sound

word gets round

goin' down

above the sound
