Fitz and the Dizzyspells
(from the album Noble Beast by Andrew Bird)
Intro: , , , , , ,
Comes and goes
Like in fits and dizzy spells
Like the weather
And it blows
Like it knows what’s going wrong
Like it’s clever
Has a name, ohh
but the name goes unspoken
Weather vanes, ohh
Were all twisted and broken
So soldier on, soldier on
Soldier on
Soldier on
Adim7
Flailing to the whir of a snack machine
And muted screams of an old regime
And then oh
Something gets in it
The nightshade gets in it
We were all fast asleep
Were all so fast asleep
But you woke us
You woke us from the strangest dream
that an aubergine
could ever know
Would ever know
Would ee-ee-ee-ever know
(Whistling solo, play these chords…)

Lava flows over crooks
and craggy cliffs to the ocean
And explodes in a steam
heat fevered cyclical motion
Has a name
But the name goes unspoken
It’s in vain
Cause the language is broken
So cast your own, cast your own
Cast your own
Soldier on
Soldier on, soldier on
