Lyrics Into the Earth - Bloc Party

Into the Earth

This fennel tea that you bought for me
Well, it does its magic discretely
I wrote this song for you, it’s true
In our only south facing room
See, I don’t know what the future holds
But I hope we face it together
Cause rock and roll has got so old
Just give me neo-soul
Into the earth, our bodies will go
We got to keep it all fluid
Into the earth, our bodies will go
You’re gonna keep me good-looking
You’ve seen the colour of my cash
Does it not impress?
Was I way too flash?
Are you backing away
From me?
Calm down, Yoshi, the fungi
Is helping this fun-guy deliver
When I get high, I dance all night
I’ll sing you Al Green songs
I’m just trying to gently blur the lines
With my trusty sensimilla
Don’t be so jaded or so coy
When you could just be familiar
Into the earth, our bodies will go
We got to keep it all fluid
Into the earth, our bodies will go
You’re gonna keep me good-looking
Take a lover, start a life
And try to keep an open mind
I’ll dress up for you, I scrub up nice
I’ll make your mother proud
I’ll make your mama proud
I’ll make your mama proud
And if I stop
I won’t go hungry cause I know how to steal
I got to thank my older brothers
For keeping me real
Into the earth, our bodies will go
We got to keep it all fluid
Into the earth, our bodies will go
You’re gonna keep me good-looking
Take a lover, start a life
And try to keep an open mind
I’ll dress up for you, I scrub up nice
I’ll make your mother proud
I’ll make your momma proud
I’ll make your momma proud
