Polyesterday Lyrics by GusGus

Polydistortion

1996

[Verse 1]
I am the paper above the skyscraper
They tried to rape her, she couldn't reach higher
I am the paper above the skyscraper
They tried to rape her, she couldn't reach higher

[Chorus]
Polyesterday, found another way
Polly said today, she'd find another way tomorrow

[Verse 2]
In public, public, they said she was sick in Buick, Buick
Driving naked for an hour, stark naked

[Chorus]
Polyesterday, found another way
Polyesterday, synthetic one way or the other

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]
Polyesterday, found another way
Polly said today, she'd find another way tomorrow
