The Backwards Pumpkin Song Lyrics

Sit down, call off the cavalry
I'm stealing the jewels
In a slow motion action replay
Bar fight, I invented chivalry
Notch in my bed post
Slow motion action replay

Sit down, call off the cavalry
I'm stealing the jewels
In a slow motion action replay
Bar fight, I invented chivalry
Notch in my bed post
Slow motion action replay

Now the fog is rolling in
Bringing us that much closer to a senseless end
Oh please don't get up
I'll get that for you
It's selfish to say I'll believe when
I believe all these lines and long enough

(Don't just lay on the ground, son)
(Don't just drown in the fountain)
And I don't know you
I don't know you

(Don't just lay on the ground, son)
(Don't just drown in the fountain)
And I don't know you
I don't know you

(You got stuck preaching action)
(I fell down using tact, son)
And I don't know you
I don't know you

(You got stuck preaching action)
(I fell down using tact, son)
And I don't know you
I don't know you

Bring back this fight tonight
All of these lies that I uphold (Don't mind them they can't elope)
For one good note (Leave them off of the great boat)
Bring back this fight tonight
All of these lies that I uphold (Don't mind them they can't elope)
For one false hope (Leave them off of the great boat)
One false hope

Go on and fix your tie
And just lead the line out
Needless to say I stumble, you play all night long

Fix your tie and just lead the line out, needless to say
Fix your tie and just lead the line out, needless to say
Fix your tie and just lead the line out, needless to say
Fix your tie and just lead the line out, needless to say
Fix your tie and just lead the line out, needless to say
Fix your tie and just lead the line out, needless to say
Fix your tie and just lead the line out, needless to say
Fix your tie and just lead the line out, needless to say

Bring back this fight tonight
All of these lies that I uphold (Don't mind them they can't elope)
For one good note (Leave them off of the great boat)
Bring back this fight tonight
All of these lies that I uphold (Don't mind them they can't elope)
For one false hope (Leave them off of the great boat)

Now you'll find, as I rewind, now you'll find it's not the point
Now you'll find, as I rewind, now you'll find it's not the point
Now you'll find, as I rewind, now you'll find it's not the point
Now you'll find, as I rewind, now you'll find it's not the point

One Love

Dance Gavin Dance is an American post-hardcore band formed in Sacramento, California in 2005, out of the ashes of Farewell Unknown and Left Apart.

The band is well known for their relatively frequent lineup changes, which, most notably, involves a fluctuating lineup of vocalists, both on tour and on record. Dance Gavin Dance incorporates many different musical genres into their palette, such as math rock, funk, and soul on top of its post-hardcore sound. Ex-vocalist Jonny Craig also received high marks for contributing to the band's unorthodox soul sound and guitarist Will Swan has been recognized for his intricate, fast-moving guitar licks and riffs.

The band currently consists of vocalists Tilian Pearson and Jon Mess, guitarist Will Swan, bassist Tim Feerick and drummer Matthew Mingus.
