Them Lyrics by Mimicking Birds

Mimicking Birds

2010

[Verse 1]
A new army in the yard
With all their discarded hearts
You dare to redefine
A subtle line to refine a design
Her cauldron of oil boils
Under the soil, a serpent coils
To ensure it’s planning to strike
At anything it likes or for that matter dislikes
It displays its level of distaste
Across its face–you he wants to erase
And you know he will do so
Just ticks the time, until it shows
[Refrain]
And I have no idea why they are them
And I have no idea why they are them
[Chorus]
It’s buried in the sands of Egypt
The way they killed them
That’s the way that they’ll kill us, I know
I hear the code so openly spoken
Like all 206 of my brittle bones are being broken
It’s blatant, yeah it’s oh so prolific
In the unseen hieroglyphics it’s horrific
Seeps in and out like winter
Man-made smooth wood will eventually splinter
[Verse 2]
A new army in the yard
And all the barricades they plan to bombard
You dare to redesign
A hill’s incline climbing a slippery vine
Her layers of surface shake
Wiggling into place, their tension displaced
No pain in scratching an itch
But when the tickle’s gone...
[Refrain]
And I have no idea why they are them
And I have no idea why they are them
[Chorus]
It’s buried in the sands of Egypt
The way they killed them
That’s the way that they’ll kill us, I know
I hear the code so openly spoken
Like all 206 of my brittle bones are being broken
It’s obtrusive, yeah it’s oh so prolific
In the unseen hieroglyphics it’s horrific
Seeps in and out like winter
Man-made smooth wood will eventually splinter
[Outro]
A smoke plume begins to bloom
My eyes are shocked and raising up towards the sky
I don’t know why, but we’re all going to die
