The New Pornographers - War on the East Coast Lyrics

Last night I dreamt
Vancouver dressed up in the ocean
Last night I dreamt
Victoria drowned in the ocean

The ride of a lifetime
The rites of spring of a lifetime
The ride of a lifetime
The rites of spring of a lifetime

Blondes, brunettes, paper jets
Blondes, brunettes, paper jets
Star power, star power
The king bends over to smell a flower

I wanted to go home with you
I wanted to stay true to the cause
But look what we're living in

It's war on the east coast
It's war out west, oh, I don't care, I don't care
It's war on the east coast
It's war out west, oh, I don't care, I don't care

Blondes, brunettes, paper jets
Blondes, brunettes, paper jets
My getaway bag, I worked on it all day
A girl on a motorbike goes the wrong way
Wild gypsy shit, never knew what hit 'er

I wanted to go home with you
I wanted to stay true to the cause
But look what we're living in

It's war on the east coast
It's war out west, oh, I don't care, I don't care
It's war on the east coast
It's war out west, oh, I don't care, I don't care

I wanted to go home with you
I wanted to stay true to the cause
But look what we're living in

It's war on the east coast
It's war out west, oh, I don't care, I don't care
It's war on the east coast
It's war out west, oh, I don't care, I don't care

It's war on the east coast
It's war out west, oh, I don't care, I don't care
It's war on the east coast
It's war out west, oh, I don't care, I don't care

It's war on the east coast
