Madeleine Lyrics by Birdmask

I’m Fine (and other lies)

2014

Don't you play here Madeleine
Don't you play here my dear friend
Keep the fire on, keep the fire warm
It will go out when you're away
Don't you play here Madeleine
Don't you play here my dear friend
Keep the fire on, keep the fire warm
It will go out when you're away
Don't you play here Madeleine
Don't you play here my dear friend
Keep the fire on, keep the fire warm
It will go out when you're away

Are you the bigger? The better? The beggar? The bitter?
Any kind of fun loving bulshitter?
Holding on to anything that brings you luck
Holding on to anything you'd like to "hey"
Pick the pill to pit the spell
Spit the spell you ne'er-do-well
Fill the fold with lies and gold
Now I'm told you'll never get old

Don't you play here Madeleine
Don't you play here my dear friend
Keep the fire on, keep the fire warm
It will go out when you're away
Don't you play here Madeleine
Don't you play here my dear friend
Keep the fire on, keep the fire warm
It will go out when you're away

You're the best of the basket they rescued
You're the bastard the best of the rest knew
Now you're pissed at the pastor that passed you
And you're pissed at the past 'cause it kissed you
Pick the pill to pit the spell
Spit the spell you ne'er-do-well
Fill the fold with lies and gold
Now I'm told you'll never get old

Don't you play here Madeleine
Don't you play here my dear friend
Keep the fire on, keep the fire warm
It will go out when you're away
Don't you play here Madeleine
Don't you play here my dear friend
Keep the fire on, keep the fire warm
It will go out when you're away

There's no flame when Madeleine is gone
It's cold now I hope she'll come along
There's no flame when Madeleine is gone
It's cold now I hope she'll come along

Don't you play here Madeleine
Don't you play here my dear friend
Keep the fire on, keep the fire warm
It will go out when you're away
Don't you play here Madeleine (Don't you play here Madeleine)
Don't you play here my dear friend (Don't you play here my dear friend)
Keep the fire on, keep the fire warm (Don't you play here Madeleine)
It will go out when you're away

There's no flame when Madeleine is gone
It's cold now I hope she'll come along
There's no flame when Madeleine is gone
It's cold now I hope she'll come along
Don't you play here Madeleine
Don't you play here my dear friend
Keep the fire on, keep the fire warm
It will go out when you're away (You're away)
Hey
Hey
