lyrics
da da da da da da da da dah
da da da da dah
da da da da da da da da dah
da da da da dah
across a kitchen table
in a mess of cooks cooking
you slung your arrow
when i wasn’t look looking
my heart it didn’t flutter
my gun stayed in its holster
i walked out of that room
with a shaft stuck in my shoulder
da da da da da da da da dah
da da da da dah
da da da da da da da da dah
da da da da dah
the signs were signing early
when we couldn’t stop talk talking
we passed a perfect day
without the clock tick tick tocking
my heartbeat didn’t skip
it was already broken
the bow can’t aim itself
when the bullseye thinks it’s joking
da da da da da da da da dah
da da da da dah
da da da da da da da da dah
da da da da dah
i like to think i am the one that got away
i like to think that i am 21st century
too sharp to fall for that ancient mythic shit
how could someone so smart be so suddenly stupid
to think somehow i would reinvent cupid
da da da da da da da da dah
da da da da dah
da da da da da da da da dah
da da da da dah
across a late spring bed
in a cabin begged and borrowed
i grabbed that arrowhead
and pulled it back out of my collar
da da da da dah
da da da da da da da da dah
da da da da dah
across a kitchen table
in a mess of cooks cooking
you slung your arrow
when i wasn’t look looking
my heart it didn’t flutter
my gun stayed in its holster
i walked out of that room
with a shaft stuck in my shoulder
da da da da da da da da dah
da da da da dah
da da da da da da da da dah
da da da da dah
the signs were signing early
when we couldn’t stop talk talking
we passed a perfect day
without the clock tick tick tocking
my heartbeat didn’t skip
it was already broken
the bow can’t aim itself
when the bullseye thinks it’s joking
da da da da da da da da dah
da da da da dah
da da da da da da da da dah
da da da da dah
i like to think i am the one that got away
i like to think that i am 21st century
too sharp to fall for that ancient mythic shit
how could someone so smart be so suddenly stupid
to think somehow i would reinvent cupid
da da da da da da da da dah
da da da da dah
da da da da da da da da dah
da da da da dah
across a late spring bed
in a cabin begged and borrowed
i grabbed that arrowhead
and pulled it back out of my collar

Cried happy tears on the first listen. So many amazing lines. So many great musical choices. Can’t wait to hear these songs live when TMG return to the UK. The pirate’s life for me.
