Counting Crows 1492 Lyrics
I'm a Russian Jew American
Impersonating African Jamaican
What I want to be is an Indian
I'm gonna be a cowboy in the end
I guess I bought a gun
because it impresses all the little girls I see
and then they all wanna sleep with me
Oh where did we disappear
into the silence that surrounds us
and then drowns us in the end
Where these people who impersonate our friends
Say come again come again come again
Into the dark Italian underground
with disco lights and disco sound and skinny
girls who drink champagne
Then they take me on their knees again,
and pull me up and out the door
to railway cars and tranny-w____s
And mornings spreading out across
the feathered thighs of angels
Oh were did we disappear to
the silence that surrounds us
and then drowns us in the end
Will they try to push you out to keep you in
Say come again come again come again
In 1492 Columbus sailed the ocean blue
In 1493 he came home across the deep blue sea
In 1494 he did it with the girl next door
In 1495 he barely made it out alive
In 1964 these sailors left me at the door
In 1970 some people got their hands on me
Now I am the king of everything
I am the king of nothing now
I am the king of everything
I am the king of nothing
Oh where did we disappear
to the silence that surrounds us
and then drowns us in the end
Where are these people who impersonate our friends
Say come again come again come come again
Oh where did we disappear
to the silence that surrounds us
and then drowns us in the end
When they try to get you out to get you in
and all these people who impersonate our friends
Say come again come again come
come again come again come again
