Big Shot City Lyrics by Interpol

The Other Side of Make-Believe

2022

[Verse 1]
Stop the operation
Help me off the table, we need to leave
I'm not the type to cry
But the more I stay alive, I feel the tendency increase

[Chorus]
(Believe)
I can give you what you see and a drunken heartbeat up my sleeve
We'll take it up and come home clean
(Believe in me)
It's a whole and mystic reverie, a sunken signal submarined
We'll shake it up and come home sweet
(Believe in me)
Stop the operation

[Verse 2]
Big shot city losing vibrations over me
Girl, you looking gritty, I'll cruise, invitations overseas
Stop the operation, I don't know how we even got here
And this story reeks of want

[Chorus]
(Believe)
I can give you what you see and a drunken heartbeat up my sleeve
We'll take it up and come home clean
(Believe in me)
It's a whole and mystic reverie, a sunken signal submarined
We'll shake it up and come home sweet
(Believe in me)
Stop the operation

[Bridge]
Big shot city

[Verse 3]
Big shot city losing vibrations over me
Girl, you looking gritty, I'll cruise, invitations overseas
And the sign says that's how we train
It's like the other side, don't know how or when to die
As long as the trees are born, oh, yeah

[Outro]
Did we know that was halcyon?
Did we know that was halcyon?
Did we know that was halcyon?
Did we know that was halcyon?
