Well this is one place where Your gods can't dwell It's like walking in To the mouth of hell Sweating our dignities out on the subway At the beginning of another long, long day As for my mortal remains I couldn't care 'Cause when the day is done She'll be waiting here That's when I love the accommodations In a urine smelling transit station I'll move these rocks For you my love I will tear them up out of the Earth And I will bend my spine 'Til it's quitting time 'Cause I know what your time is worth And I'll give my days to the Neanderthals With the classic rock And the wrecking ball I'll go swimming in the wet concrete And I'll cast my pearls at the unpaved streets I don't mind the mental atrophy 'Cause when the lids come down, you're all I see You're like a lovely hallucination You get me through my current occupation I'll move these rocks For you my love I will tear them up out of the Earth And I will bend my spine 'Til it's quitting time 'Cause I know what your time is worth See I'm towering Above mortal men I'll emerge from the darkness And there you stand You're the Queen of all the surface streets I'm a wiener boy, that you're here to meet I don't need the money I couldn't care 'Cause everything I want Is standing right here I would live on the street In a cardboard shack Just the worship the feet And the curve of your back You'll be my only preoccupation On a permanent vacation Now I will move these rocks For you my love I will tear them up out of the Earth And I will bend my spine 'Til it's quitting time 'Cause I know what your love is worth What your love is worth What your love is worth
This amazing band used to visit Phoenix AZ 2003-2008 super-frequent and it was SO GREAT. I probably saw them 14 times from the Emerald Lounge to Hollywood Alley to the Paper Heart and other larger venues. What is YOUR love worth? These folks are awesome.
Sadly I did not secure the rights nor insert a "fair use" clause in the descriptor (yet). My theory is that the ad revenue goes to the rightful owners (since I do not monetize any of my videos). Or maybe I just got lucky in this case.
This what put on a playlist while I’ve been drinking too much, thank you RUclips
Well this is one place where
Your gods can't dwell
It's like walking in
To the mouth of hell
Sweating our dignities out on the subway
At the beginning of another long, long day
As for my mortal remains
I couldn't care
'Cause when the day is done
She'll be waiting here
That's when I love the accommodations
In a urine smelling transit station
I'll move these rocks
For you my love
I will tear them up out of the Earth
And I will bend my spine
'Til it's quitting time
'Cause I know what your time is worth
And I'll give my days to the Neanderthals
With the classic rock
And the wrecking ball
I'll go swimming in the wet concrete
And I'll cast my pearls at the unpaved streets
I don't mind the mental atrophy
'Cause when the lids come down, you're all I see
You're like a lovely hallucination
You get me through my current occupation
I'll move these rocks
For you my love
I will tear them up out of the Earth
And I will bend my spine
'Til it's quitting time
'Cause I know what your time is worth
See I'm towering
Above mortal men
I'll emerge from the darkness
And there you stand
You're the Queen of all the surface streets
I'm a wiener boy, that you're here to meet
I don't need the money
I couldn't care
'Cause everything I want Is standing right here
I would live on the street
In a cardboard shack
Just the worship the feet
And the curve of your back
You'll be my only preoccupation
On a permanent vacation
Now I will move these rocks
For you my love
I will tear them up out of the Earth
And I will bend my spine
'Til it's quitting time
'Cause I know what your love is worth
What your love is worth
What your love is worth
my favourite song of all time!
This is something I want a guy to sing to me haha. Just like a Filipino harana. Very beautiful! H
I found this when I watched Devotchka's cover of 'The Last Beat of My Heart'.
Thank you for sharing Adam.
I hope that Lin Yili's spirit is with you.

Hey this was great! Wondering how you got the rights from devotchka to make this. There are many songs I'd like to do this for. Thanks!
