"Buffalo Replaced" lyrics - MITSKI
Mosquitoes can enjoy me, I can't go inside
I'm suckin' up as much of the full moon, so bright
Fireflies zoomin' through the yard like highway cars
Someone out here burnin' something, kids feelin' alive
[Chorus:]
Freight train stampedin' through my backyard
It'll run across the plains like the new buffalo replaced
[Post-Chorus:]
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
I have a hope and though she's blind with no name
She shits where she's supposed to, feeds herself while I'm away
Sometimes I think it would be easier without her
But I know nothing can hurt me when I see her sleepin' face
[Chorus:]
Freight train horn howlin' out mad and wild
Headin' somewhere far away like the new buffalo replaced
[Post-Chorus:]
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ah-ah, ah
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
