Hopeful Monsters
Appears on: Banjos in Bengal, Hopeful Monsters
Smoky city
Lock me in and chew me up and
Make me pretty
When I'm still lost and ever looking
Hopeful Harry
That's the name by which I used to be known
You can cash and carry
Cash me in and carry me, carry me
Chorus
Hopeful monsters we all are
Fill the world with motor car
Fill the skies with satellites
That tell us up's a dying star
Hopeful monsters we all are
Screwing up our wishing well
Building bridges cross the world
Connecting heaven up to hell
Ship for shore now
Travelling man
Step ashore now
Try try and try again to
Tell us what you
Saw out there in the midnight sky
Looking down on Hopeful Harry from up high
Looking down and looking down
And looking down and looking down
And looking down on Hopeful Harry from up high
Chorus
Let's hear the guitar!
Choking city
Suck me in and chew me up and
When I'm still lost and ever looking
Hopeful Harry
That's the name by which I used to be known
You can cash and carry
Cash me in and carry me, carry me
Chorus (x2)
Hopeful Harry!
