Two-Headed Boy Lyrics


Two-headed boy
All floating in glass
The sun it has passed
Now it's blacker than black
I can hear as you tap on your jarI am listening to hear where you are
I am listening to hear where you areTwo-headed boy
Put on Sunday shoes
And dance round the room to accordion keys
With the needle that sings in your heartCatching signals that sound in the dark
Catching signals that sound in the darkWe will take off our clothes
And they'll be lacing fingers through the notches in your spine
And when all is breaking everything that you could keep inside
Now your eyes ain't moving now
They just lay there in their climbTwo-headed boy
With pulleys and weights
Creating a radio played just for two
In the parlor with a moon across her faceAnd through the music he sweetly displays
Silver speakers that sparkle all day

Made for his lover who's floating
And choking with her hands across her faceAnd in the dark we will take off our clothes
And they'll be lacing fingers through the notches in your spine
And when all is breaking everything that you could keep inside
Now your eyes ain't moving now
They just lay there in their climbTwo-headed boy
There is no reason to grieve
The world that you need is wrapped in gold silver sleeves
Left beneath Christmas trees in the snowAnd I will take you and leave you alone
Watching spirals of white softly flow
Over your eyelids and all you did
Will wait until the point when you let go

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

Jeff Mangum is the founder and driving force behind what was the band Neutral Milk Hotel and one of the cofounders of the Elephant 6 Collective. Rob Schneider (of The Apples In Stereo), Will Cullen Hart, Bill Doss (formerly of Olivia Tremor Control and now comprising Circulatory System and The Sunshine Fix, respectively) and Mangum all attended the same high school in Ruston, Louisiana in the late 1980's. The friends shared a passion for bands of the 60's such as The Beach Boys, The Beatles, and The Zombies, as well as an affinity for newer, noisier bands such as Sonic Youth and Minutemen.
