Lost In Translation

from The Hoax by Wild Animals

/

lyrics

A shocking transfer in Beijing and 26 hours later
were Turncoat standing there with open arms
they drove us through giant skyscrapers straight to the first show,
we watched their set our minds collectively blown

So what if the vegan dish in an “indian” is really steak?
So what if you realize that the shrines are mostly fake?

I had never been so confused, those 10 days lost in translation
I went for a walk nothing to lose
I found myself in a fireman’s station
but I promise we’ll be back next year not later
KANPAI!

Japanese Mascis welcomed us in a city that I don’t remember
I turned my head for a moment and he had passed out
A guy from Kyoto came backstage and gave us an avocado
then what he said it almost made us cry

So what if Fon had a shitty night on stage cause (of) the gear?
So what if we slept on a tatami soaking with beer?

I had never been so confused, those 10 days lost in translation
I went for a walk nothing to lose
I found myself in a fireman’s station
but I promise we’ll be back next year not later

Kazu, quite frankly,
we’re tired and cranky
but we wanna explore
more record stores

I had never been so confused, those 10 days lost in translation
I went for a walk nothing to lose
I found myself in a fireman’s station
but I promise we’ll be back next year not later
KANPAI!
