Alligator [Choir Version feat. Dirty Projectors and Beirut]

Grizzly Bear — Thu, 16 Apr 2009 03:08:30 +0000

It’s a fear, it is near, the shape becomes ever clear
It bears teeth extra sharp that’ll cut you in the heart
It attacks really quick, try and fight with a stick
There’s no use, give it up, this is life and this is love…

You are my alligator, You are my alligator…

He Hit Me [The Crystals cover]

Grizzly Bear — Tue, 14 Apr 2009 18:48:30 +0000

He hit me
And it felt like a kiss.
He hit me
But it didn’t hurt me.

He couldn’t stand to hear me say
That i’d been with someone new,
And when i told him i had been untrue

He hit me
and it felt like a kiss.
He hit me
and i knew he loved me.

If he didn’t care for me
I could have never made him mad
But he hit me,
And I was glad.

Yes, he hit me
And it felt like a kiss.
He hit me
And I knew I loved him.
And then he took me in his arms
With all the tenderness there is,
And when he kissed me,
He made me his.

Little Brother [Electric]

Wide eyed and up in arms, my little brother was a solemn one
He always had his quiet corner
Pride of my countrymen, my little brother will be born again
Just give us back our quiet corner
Now go back to the other side of my bed
I’ll go back to the place where you get started
And I’ll sleep, just put the pillows under my head

Shift [Alternate Version]

Baby I’ve got silver and I’ve got gold
But when push comes to shove this is getting old

I wouldn’t have it any other way
No I wouldn’t have it any other way
No I wouldn’t have it any other way

(whistling)
And when you come I’ll be there…
There…
There…

Juan from Argentina, such a strange predicament we find ourselves in
Baby it’s a long way to South America
Every option I have costs more than I’ve got
If you trust in me, if I could I would be there
All I have to give seems to be all over you and everyone else
I guess I’m guilty spreading thin with my love
If you trust in me, if I could I would be there

Why don’t you do any dishes? Why?
I always clean up the kitchen, fine.

I want you to know
when I look in your eyes
with every blow
comes another lie

You think its alright
You think its alright
You think its alright
you think its alright

Can’t you feel the knife?
Can’t you feel the knife?
Can’t you feel the knife?
Can’t you feel the knife?

I want you to know
when I look in your eyes
with every blow

You think its alright
You think its alright
You think its alright
you think its alright

Can’t you feel the knife?
Can’t you feel the knife?
Can’t you feel the knife?
Can’t you feel the knife?

Deep Blue Sea [Daniel Rossen home recording feat. Campbell Davis]

Grizzly Bear — Sat, 04 Apr 2009 19:08:15 +0000

deep blue sea darlin
on a deep blue sea
deep blue sea darlin
on a deep blue sea

and it was mamma that got
drowned in out in that deep blue sea

dig his grave darlin with a
silver spade
dig his grave darlin with a
silver spade

and it was brother that got
drowned in out in that deep blue sea

drop him down darlin
with a golden chain
drop him down darlin
with a golden chain

and it was daddy that got
drowned in out in that deep blue sea
