"Delta Bay" lyrics - EMPIRE OF THE SUN

EMPIRE OF THE SUN
"Delta Bay"

When about midnight roosters at the hip tight
Played the blues with Cool Kite
Shot a round with Heather Smite
Mixed my drinks with Mia Town
Smoked hip hop with Roger Down
Dulled the lights from 5th Ave
Played the colours Jonny Par

[Pre-Chorus:]
Down at Delta Bay
Down at Delta Bay
Down at Delta Bay
Down at Delta Bay

[Chorus:]
Chord a light, paralight abyss
New tricks, moonlight
Sad sumo, silly sea

[Bridge:]
Counting truth death in a Hollywood scene
Rimmed shot, joked lot, heard the point of towns...

[Pre-Chorus:]
Down at Delta Bay
Down at Delta Bay
Down at Delta Bay
Down at Delta Bay

Then I got a phone call
I saw you on the new shore
Tapping teeth in lifestyle
Moving guards like Tim Know
When I got a phone call
I saw you on new show
Tapping teeth in lifestyle
Tapping teeth in lifestyle

[Chorus:]
Chord a light, paralight abyss
New tricks, moonlight
Sad sumo, silly sea

[Bridge:]
Counting truth death in a Hollywood scene
Rimmed shot, joked lot, heard the point of towns cup
Leant back, flipped up, met the mayor, drinks up
Had a smoke, angry yoke, who spoke in tongues and dreamed a lot

[Chorus:]
Chord a light, paralight abyss
New tricks, moonlight
Sad sumo, silly sea

[Bridge:]
Counting truth death in a Hollywood scene
Rimmed shot, joked lot, heard the point of towns cup
Leant back, flipped up, met the mayor, drinks up
Had a smoke, angry yoke, who spoke in tongues and dreamed a lot
Never been to nowhere town, always knew the mind in dock
