oh no! - the decemberists lyrics
[verse 1]
it was on a wedding night
how they danced by the firelight
and the bride was well arrayed
by her fifteen chambermaids
as her father raised a toast
to the health of all the hosts
we descended from the apse
to bear witness to the old collapse
[chorus]
and it’s oh no
we’re jumped up and ready to go
where do you think that the money comes from
do you think it just naturally grows?
and it’s oh no
we lurk at the edge of the road
listening for whistling, a bang from the drum
and it seems that we’ve caught you in tow
between the devil and the devil you know
[verse 2]
in the back of the bazaar
by the tramps and the muscle cars
we have gathered two by two
just to figure out what to do
pretty sarah’s a sodden mess
gone and spoiled her party dress
all the suitors so entranced
who will join her in the ambulance
see the decemberists live
get tickets as low as $37
[chorus]
and it’s oh no
i’m sure that you’d just love to know
but what will you do when the rumpus is done
and it’s time that we all moved on home?
and it’s oh no
kick up your heels, you’re [?]
a song that is sung where my people come from
and it’s best when it’s not sung alone
but with the devil and the devil you know
[chorus]
and it’s oh no
dash him in one final blow
stick to the rackets, the heavy’s a hack
and he’s singing pianissimo
for the devil and the devil you know
[verse 2]
when the casts have all run dry
and we’ve laid our knuckles by
standing legless on the pews
shouting curses to our union dues
out beyond the city walls
in the grotesque mountain halls
there’s a darkness coming on
so it’s best i think we rambled on
[chorus]
and it’s oh no
on to the next bl**dy show
you won’t feel so loose with a noose ’round your neck
when those cold winter winds start to blow
and it’s oh no
one more before we go
how can we ever get used to this dreck
’cause i’m sick and i want to go home
to the devil and the devil we know
to the devil and the devil we know
to the devil and the devil we know
