I Am Kloot - Mermaids

G Bm F Em
does it feel like religion? does it crush your old ideas?
well fold me in paper i’ve got some here
and show me the warrant to which i will attest
put me in handcuffs i’ll give it a rest

[ chorus ]
G Bm
the light through the windows
F Em
casts doubt on the mermaids
G Bm F Em
and they sing at the bottom of the sea

you’ve run out of business in light of what you want
you’ve come wielding plastic and gone straight to the front
you’ve rejigged and counted , it a mountain not too much
i’ll give you my credence if that’s not enough

[ chorus ]

you’re reading the letters that no – one ever wrote
i’m moving through something i travel in hope
so read me the warrant , to which i will attest
put me in handcuffs i’ll give it a rest

( chorus )
