Lyrics The New Pornographers

The New Pornographers

War on the East Coast

Last night I dreamt

Vancouver dressed up in the ocean

Last night I dreamt

Victoria drowned in the ocean

The ride of a lifetime

The rites of spring of a lifetime

The ride of a lifetime

The rites of spring of a lifetime

Blondes, brunettes, paper jets

Blondes, brunettes, paper jets

Star power, star power

The king bent over to smell a flower

I wanted to go home with you

I wanted to stay true to the cause

But look what we're living in

R: It's war on the east coast

It's war out west

Oh, I don't care

I don't care

R:

Blondes, brunettes, paper jets

Blondes, brunettes, paper jets

Star power, star power

The king bent over to smell a flower

I get it way back

I worked on it all day

A girl on a motorbike goes the wrong way

Wild gypsy ship

Never knew what hit

I wanted to go home with you

I wanted to stay true to the cause

But look what we're living in

R: (2x)

I wanted to go home with you

I wanted to stay true to the cause

But look what we're living in

R: (4x)
