THE DECEMBERISTS
"The Singer Addresses His Audience"
(Colin Meloy)

We know, we know
We belong to you
We know you built your life around us
And would we change?
But we had to change, some

We know, we know
We belong to you
We know you threw your arms around us
In the hopes we wouldn't change
But we had to change, some
You know,
To belong to you

And we're aware that you cut your hair
In the style that our drummer wore
In the video

But with fame came a mounting claim for the evermore
You know

So when your bridal processional
Is a televised confessional
To the benefits of Axe shampoo
You know we did it for you
We did it all for you

'Cause we know, we know
We belong to you
We know you built your life around us
And would we change?
But we had to change, some
You know,
To belong to you

You know, to belong to you
You know, to belong to you
You know, to belong to you

To belong, to belong, to belong
To belong, to belong, to belong
To belong, to belong, to belong
To belong, to belong, to belong
To belong, to belong, to belong
To belong, to belong, to belong
To belong to you
To belong to you
To belong to you
To belong to you

To belong
To belong
To belong
