X-Ray Lyrics
She's the flutter in my heart, the spring that's in my step
My empty head
Sees the lump build in my throat, the view in my mind's eye,
My empty heart
She's got her suspicions (x-ray x-ray x-ray x-ray vision)
She's got x-ray vision (x-ray x-ray x-ray x-ray)
And she sees through me with her
X-ray x-ray x-ray x-ray vision (x 2)
See me shifting in my seat, pitter patter but off beat
My empty head
She's the tongue kept in my cheek, my conscience leak
My empty heart
She's got her suspicions (x-ray x-ray x-ray x-ray vision)
She's got x-ray vision (x-ray x-ray x-ray x-ray)
And she sees through me with her
X-ray x-ray x-ray x-ray vision (x 2)
And with this power she can see
Through solid objects like you and me
My empty head
Sees the lump build in my throat, the view in my mind's eye,
My empty heart
She's got x-ray vision (x-ray x-ray x-ray x-ray)
And she sees through me with her
X-ray x-ray x-ray x-ray vision (x 2)
My empty head
She's the tongue kept in my cheek, my conscience leak
My empty heart
She's got x-ray vision (x-ray x-ray x-ray x-ray)
And she sees through me with her
X-ray x-ray x-ray x-ray vision (x 2)
Through solid objects like you and me
i fucking love the maccabees, by far the best band for ages. orlando weeks is a lyrical inspiration.
This is, of course, a fab song from a fab band. and i love the whole the fact he's cheating on her, despite the fact he loves her... "she's the flutter in my heart, the spring in my step" is just too perfect.
oh my god.
"She's got x-ray vision" I think it should be "a magic intuition" OR "romantic intuition" can't quite decipher which, but I think the latter.
Romantic intuition I think.
these lyrics are different to the album version, so it is x-ray vision
I don't think it's about his girlfriend, but his mother!
'She can see trough solid objects, like you and me'.
This woman has powers, like a mother does.
Superb song!
