Passion Pit - Take a Walk(2013)

[00:44.78] All these kinds of places make it seem like it's been ages
[00:48.90] Tomorrow some new building will scrape the sky
[00:53.98] I love this country dearly
[00:55.98] I can feel the ladder clearly
[00:58.55] But I never thought I'd be alone to try
[01:03.54] Once I was outside Penn Station selling red and white carnations
[01:08.59] We were still alone my wife and I
[01:12.95] Before we married saved my money
[01:15.42] Brought my dear wife over
[01:17.39] Now I work to bring my family stateside
[01:22.35] But off the boat they stayed awhile then scattered across the coast
[01:27.22] Once a year I'll see them for a week or so at most
[01:31.32] I take a walk
[01:32.74] (Take a walk, take a walk, take a walk, take a walk...)
[01:40.98] I take a walk
[01:42.24] (Take a walk, take a walk, take a walk, take a walk...)
[01:48.32]
[01:51.18] Practice isn't perfect but the market cuts the loss
[01:55.54] I remind myself that times could be much worse
[02:00.34] My wife won't ask me questions
[02:02.59] There's not so much to ask
[02:05.09] And she'll never flaunt around an empty purse
[02:10.05] Once my mother-in-law came just to stay a couple nights
[02:14.54] Then decided she would stay the rest of her life
[02:19.31] I watch my little children play some board game in the kitchen
[02:24.03] And I sit and pray they never feel my strife
[02:29.06] But then my partner called to say the pension funds were gone
[02:33.65] He made some bad investments now the accounts are overdrawn
[02:37.95] I take a walk
[02:39.30] (Take a walk, take a walk, take a walk, take a walk...)
[02:44.49]
[02:47.56] I take a walk
[02:48.80] (Take a walk, take a walk, take a walk, take a walk...)
[02:53.89]
[02:57.69] Honey, it's your son I think I borrowed just too much
[03:02.16] We had taxes, we had bills, we had a lifestyle to front
[03:06.88] And tonight I swear I'll come home and we'll make love like we're young
[03:11.57] And tomorrow you'll cook dinner for the neighbors and their kids
[03:16.42] We can rip apart those socialists and all their damn taxes
[03:21.12] But see I am no criminal, I'm down on both bad knees
[03:25.97] I'm just too much a coward, to admit when I'm in need
[03:30.16] I take a walk
[03:31.74] (Take a walk, take a walk, take a walk, take a walk...)
[03:36.78]
[03:39.76] I take a walk
[03:41.01] (Take a walk, take a walk, take a walk, take a walk...)
[03:45.54]
[03:49.26] I take a walk
[03:50.58] (Take a walk, take a walk, take a walk, take a walk...)
[03:55.94]
[03:58.66] I take a walk
[04:00.05] (Take a walk, take a walk, take a walk, take a walk...)
[04:03.03]
