Your Fake Name Is Good Enough for Me Lyrics
Fake watches in your broken hand
Barely keeping time
Barefoot in the city and your phone is ringing
Bet you're watching all the happy kids
Climbing on a car
They were singing something
Maybe they were singing:
"Become the weeds, we will become
Become the sea, we will become"
Your fake money gave you everything
Left along the road
You're cursing by the furnace and your phone is ringing
Bet you're watching all the happy kids
Clapping in the cool
They were singing something
Maybe they were singing:
"Become the weeds, we will become
Become the sea, we will become"
Your fake name is not for everyone
It's good enough for me
Forgotten by the garden and your phone is ringing
Bet you're watching all the happy kids
Kiss each other clean
They were singing something
Maybe they were singing:
"Become the weeds, we will become
Become the sea, we will become"
Become the rising sun
We will become, become
Become the damage done
We will become, become
Become the river sway
We will become, become
Become the love we made
We will become, become
Become the endless chain
We will become, become
Become forgotten name
We will become, become
Become sinner and the saint
We will become, become
Become bandage and the blade
We will become, become
Become the word and the breath
We will become, become
Become the card in the chest
We will become, become
Become the liked and the loathed
We will become, become
Become the bruise and the blow
We will become, become
Become the fruit and the fall
We will become, become
Become the caress and the claw
We will become, become
Become glory and the guilt
We will become, become
Become the blossom and the wilt
We will become, become
Become both right and wrong
We will become, become
Become the sound and the song
We will become, become
Become tooth and the tongue
We will become, become
Become the target and the gun
We will become, become
Become so cruel and kind
We will become, become
Become the weary and the wild
We will become, become
Become allegiance and doubt
We will become, become
Become the whisper and the shout
We will become, become
Become the honest and the veiled
We will become, become
Become the hammer and the nail
We will become, become
Become the blessing and the curse
We will become, become
Become their crooked words
We will become, become
Become the blood and the bone
We will become, become
Become an ice cream cone
We will become, become
Become the way and the wall
We will become, become
Become a disco ball
We will become, become
Become both now and then
We will become, become
Become again and again
We will become, become
Barely keeping time
Barefoot in the city and your phone is ringing
Bet you're watching all the happy kids
Climbing on a car
They were singing something
Maybe they were singing:
"Become the weeds, we will become
Become the sea, we will become"

You're cursing by the furnace and your phone is ringing

i'm pretty sure it should be "clapping in the "coal""

Still unsure about a few words, all the help would be greatly appreciated. :)
Thanks so much for these lyrics! This is what I'm hearing:
"Barefoot" in the city and your phone is ringing
"Left" along the road
Become the "fruit" and the fall Become the "caress" and the claw
Become the blood and the "bone"
Become the "guard" and the chest?
Also, it could possibly be "the honest and the bale," if you wanna dig into some archaic terms. "Bale" meaning "evil."
It could also be "allegiance and doubt" I hope the album comes with a lyric booklet, lol.
Become the honest and the ?
I hear: Become the honest and the veiled. (like concealed or disguised)
Anyone else hear Cousin It from adams family at like 2:30? :)

Nobody taking a stab at the meaning yet? I have no clue. I can barely make an educated guess. Seems to hint at a third world country at times, maybe after a catastrophe...but then I get hints of an apocalypse and maybe good vs bad.

Phones ringing...happy kids...and singing in every verse. I got nothing.

My best guess is that the narrator and the subject of the song(perhaps they are the same person) are looking over the subject's current lifestyle/ carreer and all the demands on him, and all his troubles. They envy the carefree life of the children playing. By the end of the song they decide to throw it all away and reinvent themselves as anything they want to be

Just noticed this today. Listen closely during the second half of the song. After every line, in the right channel, there are a couple of tracks of female backing singers singing "we will become what we will become."
