Şarkı sözleri : Mountain Goats, The. The Mad Clarinet.

I don't mean to scare you, you?re leaving soon

But the wallpaper's melting, thoughts turning blue.

The light bulb is giving out shots in the dark

And the mad clarinet?s run away with your heart.



Remember that old tune,

The one that you cried to

When you fell.

Yeah, it felt like you'd lost your mind.



You were not twenty-one when he first saw you.

How his melody cheered you, pitch rang so true.

Placed your lips to the mouthpiece, struck out a part,

Now the mad clarinet?s run away with your heart.



Do you remember that old tune?

The one that you cried to

When you fell.

It felt like you'd lost your mind.



When you left that sucker on a moonlit night

You didn't bother looking left or you wouldn't look right

You nearly got run over by a ten ton truck

Got your pride you tried to make out like you...



When he received you,

Your hope simply fell through

So you cried.

Yeah it felt like you'd lost your mind.
