Lyrics

[Verse 1]
All of the colors ran out round mid-November, oh
We was a-scuttle about, do you remember, oh?
You left your radio on with berries all over it
When all the music was gone, you were in mauve a bit
[Verse 2]
Something about you, you and oblivion
Something about you, you and oblivion
[Verse 3]
You held on tight to the rails, I held the other one
Seeking your personal grail, just like your mother's one
Gliding past hedges and clocks, off to infinity
I can remember your locks and your virginity
[Verse 4]
Something about you, you and oblivion
Something about you, you and oblivion
[Verse 5]
Sitting alone by the tombs, under the obelisk
Mixing up powders with brooms, you shoulda got a whisk
This is the month of the dead, leaves on your ouija board
Carry them round in your head, they've got free room and board, yeah
[Verse 6]
Right when the death train got your ma
Right when the death train got my pa
Let's slip your hand on the platform
Said I must be going, yeah
See you, see you
[Verse 7]
All of the colors ran out 'round mid-November, oh
We was a-scuttle about, do you remember, oh?
[Verse 8]
Something about you, you and oblivion
Something about you, you and oblivion
You and oblivion
You and oblivion
