Nathan of Cold War Kids

Driving around today I think I probably listened to "Hospital Beds" by Cold War Kids about 8 times. Every time it finished, I simply wasn't satisfied with having to hear any other song and *needed* to listen to this one again.

Did you see a girl driving around in a red Golf TDI today, beltin' out lyrics in her own happy little world? That was me. :)

There's nothing to do here
some just whine and complain
in bed in the hospital
coming and going
asleep and awake
in bed at the hospital

tell me the story
of how you ended up here
I've heard it all in the hospital
nothing's sufficing
doctors on tour
somewhere in India

I've got one friend
laying across from me
I did not choose him
he did not choose me
(favorite lines to belt out)
we've got no chance of recovery
joy and hospital
joy and misery

put out the fire boys
don't stop don't stop
put out the fire on us

bring the buckets by the dozens
bring your nieces and your cousins
come put out the fire on us

we are now fish and chips
a tidy young opera
