Everything Is Lyrics by Neutral Milk Hotel

On Avery Island

1995

[Monologue]
Jeff: "Who were you?"
Child: "A member of 'Kiss' or a punk rocker."
J: "Every year?"
C: "'Just kind of funny, yeah, I would dress up as a... punk rocker, when I was, um... little."
J: "So what'd you do when you became a punk rocker?"
C: "I wore a trash bag."

[Verse 1]
Growing sleepy as the rain falls
As children draped in flowers form a chain
They sing a song with jelly jars and bird calls
As night falls into dust and it's day again
[Verse 2]
I'm not afraid of a love parade in my daydream
Old men with kazoos and beating drums
But I awake and I see the streets are ice cream
It's just you and me and oh dear, our life has just begun
[Chorus]
Everything is beautiful here
It's spinning circles around my ears
I'm finally breaking free from fear
And it's fading
[Verse 3]
Oh beautiful smiles, won't you stay awhile
We could close the door and sleep all day
It's a September sky with pretty pictures in my mind
That's lost its feeling of so afraid
[Chorus]
Everything is beautiful here
It's spinning circles around my ears
I'm finally breaking free from fear
And it's fading
[Verse 1]
Grown sleepy now as the rain falls
As children draped in flowers form a chain
They sing a song with jelly jars and bird calls
As night falls into dust and it's day again
[Chorus]
Everything is beautiful here
It's spinning circles around my ears
I'm finally breaking free from fear
And it's fading
