Lyrics of Montreal

of Montreal

Like a Tourist

I saw your movie tonight

I thought you were pretty good

I'm so happy that you're doing what you want to

You go to your favorite dark place, think of the auto-

da-fé

Unicorns eating baby meat

There's a dragon rape if you want one (one's the

loneliest number)

Smokehood merlion, female erection,

You fetishize the archetype

Ha! you fetishize the archetype

Don't treat me like a tourist, let's stay high on a

negative wave

And paint it black just like the good times

Don't treat me like a tourist, let's stay high

They break our hearts like it's our birthdays, soak us

in animal blood

I want somebody to frisk me

I want this night to distort me

But I didn't come here just to see you dancing

No, or to admire your art

Or try and cure your Androphobic heart

Anyways I'm crippled inside

Don't treat me like a tourist, let's stay high on a

negative wave

And paint it black just like the good times

Don't treat me like a tourist, let's stay 'woke' like

Pharaoh

And paint it feral in our heads again

Like when we were passengers

Don't treat me like a tourist, let's stay high

They break our hearts like it's our birthdays, soak us

in animal blood
