Mew – “Silas the Magic Car” Lyrics

I wanted you to be at home
I wanted you to be at home
Could you foresee a day?
You might not play?

I wanted you to be at home
I wanted you to be at home
Could you foresee a day?
You might not play?
I wanted you to be at home

Silas and Bo, they got tired
And theyโ€™ll call you once a week
โ€˜Cause itโ€™s strange here
No dark career
They all say they long
To reach their sorrow now
Thatโ€™s gone

I wanted you to be at home
I wanted you to be at home
Could you foresee a day?
You might not play?

I wanted you to be at home
I wanted you to be at home
Could you foresee a day?
You might not play?

They took us in to see their new apartment
Thinking weโ€™re slow and that our love is mean
Weโ€™ll leave the green green
โ€˜Cause maybe weโ€™ll get out somehow
No-one thought of it
We didnโ€™t know weโ€™d seen their last show

Silas and Bo, they got tired
And theyโ€™ll call you once a week
โ€˜Cause itโ€™s strange here
No dark career
They all say they long
To reach their sorrow now
Thatโ€™s gone
And you โ€“ no dark career
They all say they long
To reach their sorrow now
Thatโ€™s gone

And you โ€“ no dark career
They all say they long
To reach their sorrow now
Thatโ€™s gone

And you โ€“ no dark career
They all say they long
To reach their sorrow now
Thatโ€™s gone
