Russian Coney Island

No longer under our protection, yeah
Just thought that everyone'd forgotten her
She hoped one day she'd get your attention, yeah
But by now she knows there is no moral code

Like a time before roads, no adults in control
Only beasts that eat meat right off the bone
Like a child on the phone that is never coming home
On a long human leash, not a stray

I didn't want all this sorrow to think about
I want to drop it on the world to figure out
And now she's crying 'cause she is forever there
Stuck inside a Russian Coney Island lair
I didn't want a whole summer to figure out
Or think or dream or talk or write or sing about
You should be proud of yourself kid, you're killing it
And now you're working Russian Coney Island, babe

Running through the forest, just like all before us
They'll be coming for us, where do we go now?
How can we ignore it? Light a candle for us
Shut the fuck up, Boris, what do we do now?

Some people'd look in her direction, yeah
But no chance to start over or try again
Guess she just needed some direction, yeah
Going toward the light might be more merciful

Like in times before roads, not much meat on the bone
Things they go as they go but they go slow (woo)
Animals that I hear as they crawl inside my wall (woo)
Make me feel less alone, is that weird?

I didn't want all these horrors to think about
I wanna drop it on the world to figure out
But I regret it 'cause I am forever here
And playing Russian Coney Island for you, dear
Now I am crying for nothing eternally
And gotta blame it on the mob, obviously
You should be proud of yourself kid, you're crushing it
'Cause now we're running Russian Coney Island, babe

Running through the forest, just like all before us
They'll be coming for us, where do we go now?
How can they ignore us? Light a candle for us
Shut the fuck up, Boris, what must we do now?

What do you want? What do you say?
Hey, you always look the other way
What do you want? What would you say?
If it was any vision, left of dead
