Lyrics The Mountain Goats

The Mountain Goats

Wear Black

Rain every day

Fog all night

Wind in the evergreen cypresses

See me lord of wind and rain

See me guardian of the underpassses

Wear black when it's light outside

Wear black when there's no light

Wear black following the left hand path

Wear black but I get right

Waves at night

Hard waves at dawn

All this coast is vanishing

Check me out, I can't blend in

Check me out, I'm young and ravishing

Wear black on your forgotten red heart

Wear black in the present tense

Wear black when you come around

Wear black in your absence

Wear black high as a kite (wear black)

Wear black dead sober (wear black)

Wear black when the struggle starts (wear black)

Wear black when it's over (wear black)

Sun through the trees

Head for the sun

Can't find the path back to the main raod

See me lord of the Thomas Guide

See me keeper of the source code

Wear black to the intervention

Wear black back to the car

Wear black wherever I go

Wear black wherever you are
