Yo La Tengo - No Water lyrics

A dirty street outside my room, papers swirl around, Not a soul on a night of gloom, tries to stop a howl. Another day on a dismal beach, a seagull turns and flys by The waves seem so high and fierce, break and crash back down. If the worst should happen, or if it takes all day Or if the sun turns grey and cold Violent wind come blow me down Ring chimes with a haunting air The curtains whoop and the dogs they growl Otherwise a silent town
