The Jezabels – No Country lyrics
[Intro]
I heard there was a kind of tree releasing spores
That could enslave a mind
To follow secret laws
He came home one day, and he was changed for good
Now he'll never walk
Under sycamore
[Verse 1]
I love you like we're in the movies
I got a Cold War fascination
Blooming with the day, she was
He said, "I won't dirty you when I'm making love"
He don't realize
He don't realize
[Pre-Chorus 1]
I love you like we're in the movies
I got a pirate fascination
Blooming at the gate, she was
But Uncle Johnny, I don't see a way out
It's like a roller coaster going 'round and 'round
In my childhood holiday
[Chorus]
But they're all in chains
My mama's in chains
My daddy's in chains
My brother's in chains
Sister: chains
Julietta: chains
Julianna: chains
Frida: chains
[Verse 2]
I heard there was some kind of lost metropolis
That could enslave a mind
To harbor secret fears
I gotta get paid, gotta get made of make-believe
'Cause there is no country for young me like me
[Pre-Chorus 2]
I love you, starlight
Hold tight, when you're seeing red
But it's alright, put my head under the bed
And singing me to sleep, she was
[Chorus]
But they're all in chains
My mama's in chains
My dad's in chains
My brother's in chains
Sister: chains
Julietta: chains
Julianna: chains
Frida: chains
[Bridge]
'Cause there was no country for young men
No country for young men
No country for young men like you
[Breakdown]
I bet you're at some kind of party
I bet you're like a superstar there
I hope you're on a A380 outta here
I love you like we're in the movies
I bet you're hanging out with 2Pac
I hope you're out there
Somewhere in the atmosphere
[Outro]
I heard there was a kind of tree releasing spores
That could enslave the mind
To follow secret laws
I heard there was a kind of tree releasing spores
That could enslave a mind
To follow secret laws
He came home one day, and he was changed for good
Now he'll never walk
Under sycamore
[Verse 1]
I love you like we're in the movies
I got a Cold War fascination
Blooming with the day, she was
He said, "I won't dirty you when I'm making love"
He don't realize
He don't realize
[Pre-Chorus 1]
I love you like we're in the movies
I got a pirate fascination
Blooming at the gate, she was
But Uncle Johnny, I don't see a way out
It's like a roller coaster going 'round and 'round
In my childhood holiday
[Chorus]
But they're all in chains
My mama's in chains
My daddy's in chains
My brother's in chains
Sister: chains
Julietta: chains
Julianna: chains
Frida: chains
[Verse 2]
I heard there was some kind of lost metropolis
That could enslave a mind
To harbor secret fears
I gotta get paid, gotta get made of make-believe
'Cause there is no country for young me like me
[Pre-Chorus 2]
I love you, starlight
Hold tight, when you're seeing red
But it's alright, put my head under the bed
And singing me to sleep, she was
[Chorus]
But they're all in chains
My mama's in chains
My dad's in chains
My brother's in chains
Sister: chains
Julietta: chains
Julianna: chains
Frida: chains
[Bridge]
'Cause there was no country for young men
No country for young men
No country for young men like you
[Breakdown]
I bet you're at some kind of party

I hope you're on a A380 outta here
I love you like we're in the movies
I bet you're hanging out with 2Pac
I hope you're out there
Somewhere in the atmosphere
[Outro]
I heard there was a kind of tree releasing spores
That could enslave the mind
To follow secret laws
