Dog Days Are Over - Florence the Machine
Happiness,it hurt like a train on a track
Coming towards her,
stuck still no turning back
She hid around corners
and she hid under beds
She killed it with kisses
and from it she fled
With every bubble she sank with a drink
and washed it away down the kitchen sink
The dog days are over
The dog days are done
The horses are coming so you better run
Run fast for your mother
run fast for your father
Run for your children
and your sisters and brothers
Leave all your love
and your loving behind you
Can't carry it with you
if you want to survive
The dog days are over
the dog days are done
Can't you hear the horses
Cuz here they come
And I never wanted anything from you
Except everything you had
and what was left after that too. oh.
Happiness it hurt like a bullet in the mind
Stuck them up drainpipes
by someone who should know better than that
The dog days are over
The dog days are gone
can you hear the horses
Cuz here they come
Run fast for your mother
and fast for your father
Run for your children
for your sisters and brothers
Leave all your love
and your loving behind you
Can't carry it with you
if you want to survive
The dog days are over
The dog days are gone
Can you hear the horses
because here they come
