Counting Crows - 1492 lyrics

I'm a Russian Jew American Impersonating African Jamaican What I want to be is an Indian I'm gonna be a cowboy in the end I guess I bought a gun because it impresses all the little girls I see and then they all wanna sleep with me Oh where did we disappear into the silence that surrounds us and then drowns us in the end Where these people who impersonate our friends Say come again come again come again Into the dark Italian underground with disco lights and disco sounds and skinny girls who drink champagne Then they take me on their knees again, and pull me up and out the door past railway cars and tranny-who*es And mornings spreading out across the feathered thighs of angels Oh were did we disappear to the silence that surrounds us and then drowns us in the end Will they try to get you out to pull you in And all these people, they've been? come again In 1492 Columbus sailed the ocean blue In 1493 he came home across the deep blue sea In 1494 he did it with the girl next door In 1495 he barely made it out alive In 1964 ?? busting out the door In 1970 some people got their hands on me Now I am the king of everything I am the king of nothing now I am the king of everything I am the king of nothing Oh where did we disappear to the silence that surrounds us and then drowns us in the end Where these people who impersonate our friends Say come again come again come come again Oh where did we disappear to the silence that surrounds us and then drowns us in the end When they try to push you out to get you in and all these people who impersonate our friends Say come again come again come come again come again come again
