Lyrics to Giant Swan
Giant Swan Video:
The Giant Swan's got ghosts in his wings

His guts are stuffed with polaroids, and they're all humiliating

And when the wine's drunk and the wild cabaret has sung i's last voice

And you're sitting all alone in the 4 AM darkness of a pitch-black theater

He explodes like fireworks on the stage with gold smoke

Sing, your voice just won't stop blooming



He wrote a play and you're the protagonist

All the girls you wish you fucked make a guest appearance

And, oh, you just won't believe the ending

So fly me home, Giant Swan



The Giant Swan's got a pixelated beak

His eyes are twin mushroom clouds

His feathers are unsuspecting cities

And his breasts are hollow apartments with the finest quality furnishings

And you can watch TV until you die there

Skin draped over luxury chairs

Sing, your voice just won't stop blooming



Your heart's a diamond, buddy, what's the price?

Your heart's a diamond, what's the fucking price?

Your skin is shaved and your hair is shitty



Sit and watch the ballerinas kick and spin

And strip down to your vulgar skeleton

You better take one more drink of Captain Morgan's rum

It's gonna sting like a raw sunrise when the Giant Swan's gone



Back at the resort, the curtain's closed

You haven't left the room for two solid weeks

With a pound of cocaine under the bed

Where the call girls perform their services

And you leave CNN on so you won't think about

Her newborn son who entered this town from the crotch you're renting out

Who's at the door? What the fuck!

Who's at the door? What the fuck!

Who's at the door? What the fuck!



Your heart is sweating; your hands are turning black

Your shadow breaks in wearing a ski mask

Is that a machete at your throat?

"Give me all your money! Give me all your dope!"



And the sun's like a painting of your whole life

You scratch at the canvas, but you can't get inside

The sun's like a painting of your whole life

You scratch at the canvas, but you can't get inside



Your family's gurglin' grief

You think you're just asleep

Is that the curtain closing?

Giant Swan, take me to the river

Is that my breast corroding?

Giant Swan, take me to the river



All the things you wish you said

Are buried with your X'd out head

All your ulterior motives

Giant Swan, take me to the river

Giant Swan, take me to the river

Giant Swan, take me to the river
