Needle Lyrics by Middle Kids

New Songs for Old Problems

2019

[Verse 1]
Dream wives pushing up their prices
Even though it's a dying trade
Cool hands sticking to their guns
Hoping it'll keep them safe
[Chorus]
They're eyeing off each other
Hoping to discover the only needle in the hay
But the sun's gone down and they're feeling around
With palms stretched open, skimming the ground
I was hoping that things were better since we're all so clever
[Verse 2]
Quick cash filling up the pockets
Of the most boring men in the room
Red lips, the promise of kisses
Whisper sweet nothingness
[Chorus]
They're eyeing off each other
Hoping to discover the only needle in the hay
But the sun's gone down and they're feeling around
With palms stretched open, skimming the ground
And you're sitting high above it
Modern comfort is always having something to say
And a million artists have come to this in the past years
Tired and hungry, laughing through tears
I was hoping that we'd feel better since we're all so clever
[Bridge]
You look better in the spring
The violence, play the rite of it
I see you ever considering
Packing up your things and driving into the sea
[Chorus]
We're eyeing off each other
Hoping to discover the only needle in the hay
But the sun's gone down and we're feeling around
With arms stretched open, skimming the ground
I was hoping that things were better
And I was hoping that things were better
I was hoping that things were better since we're all so clever
