The Gloating Sun Lyrics
tap on your cap
there's a whispering breeze in town
the trees have found a voice and
you're one for fun
you're one for fun in the gloating sun
and now i'm making it in
from out a fireplace on stilts
pay less attention
the room
said crying's a fate
or whatever word you used to call it
i'm one for climb
i'm one for climb in the sun
and how for us to be so black and happy
before the souls have all been stopped
the draining lasts for you still
five jars i'm drinking our fill
the tips will sing the christmas star
our laughing heart
there's a whispering breeze in town
the trees have found a voice and
you're one for fun
you're one for fun in the gloating sun
and now i'm making it in
from out a fireplace on stilts
pay less attention
the room
said crying's a fate
or whatever word you used to call it
i'm one for climb
i'm one for climb in the sun
and how for us to be so black and happy
before the souls have all been stopped
the draining lasts for you still
five jars i'm drinking our fill
the tips will sing the christmas star
our laughing heart

Whoever transcribed this was on crack. It's the same all over the internet, and there's no way it can be right.
The one I've heard goes something like this (and I'm still a little fuzzy on the lyrics, since all I can find is a live recording -- help me out!):
Snap on your cap There's a whispering breeze in town The trees have found a voice and You're one for fun in the gloating sun of man And now I'm making it in front of a fireplace on stilts I'm up for climbing, this time enough for us to be both black and happy Pay less attention to those that ???? Or whatever word you used to call it I'll drain the last from the still Five jars and drinking our fill It takes a single kiss to start A laughing heart
I'm not sure what the words are exactly, this seems kind of close, though. What I do know is that the harmonies on this song are pretty awesome, it sounds amazing.
it definitely sounds like the fuzzy warmth of summer.
so do the three untitleds on 'when you land here'
Awesome song, as has been mentioned the harmonies in it are just amazing.
The lyrics are hard one to figure out, they could be anything really. I hear this:
"Tap on your cap There's a whispering breeze in town The trees have found a voice and
You're one for fun You're one for fun in the gloating sun of man And now I'm making it in Front of a fireplace on stilts Pay less attention To their sad cries of fame Or whatever word you used to call it
I'm up for climb I'm up for climbing Theres time enough for us To be both black and happy Before the souls have all been stopped We'll drain the last from the still Five jars I'm drinking our fill It takes a single kiss to start A laughing heart."
Regardless, awesome song.
tap on your cap there's a whispering breeze in town the trees have found their voice and you're one for fun you're one for fun in the gloating sun have met and now i'm making it in front of a fireplace on stilts pay less attention to those bad times of fate or whatever word you used to call it i'm up for climb i'm up for climbing this time and not for us to be both black and happy before the souls have all been stopped we'll drain lasts for you still five jars i'm drinking our fill it takes a single kiss to start our laughing heart
