MGMT - The Handshake
I just shook the handshake
I just sealed the deal
I'll try not to let them
Take everything they can steal
People always told me
Don't forget your roots
I know I can feel them
underneath my leather boots
You toss all the mornings
lost to the clouds
and you watch it go
Your fairweather friends
on a parachute binge get
lost when the wind blows
The handshake's stuck
on the tip of my tongue
It tastes like death
but it looks like fun
I was a loner
I was just waiting by myself
When you warped temptress
Rose to bring me
happiness and wealth
Black tears black smile
black credit cards and shoes
You can call all the people you want
But it's you who's being used
Under your black eyes honey
Right beneath your nose
A curse on all creation
Every single thing you know
White smoke white light
white marble on the floor
It would only take a few seconds
of darkness to figure out
what's in store
Little girl
You convince yourself
that you want it
but you don't know
You keep trying to wash
the blood from your hands
but it won't go
We're gonna keep you on the run
We got the handshake
