The Shins The Celibate Life song lyrics

The dust from a four day affair is now landing

All over the floor and your brown legs

The gold-plated legs of my rival

Whose eyes had no reason to fall

You led no celibate life

No skirt while chemicals danced in your head

You stole the keys to this ride

And your fables are falling tonight

Because of your struggle to make them

Their taste for your pastime is fading

Remember the girls in the middle

Are always the first to fall off

You've learned to live like a mouse

Searching the cracks in the walls to remember

All of the dregs in the crowd

You barely recall

You led no celibate life

No skirt while chemicals danced in your head

You stole the keys to this ride

And your fables are falling tonight
