Operation ivy cover

Lyrics courtesy of meisje



Sound system won't you bring me back up

It's the one thing that i can depend on...



Try to describe to the limit of my ability

It's there a second and then it's given up what it used to be

Contained in music somehow more than just sound

The inspiration coming and it's twisting things around

Because--you always know that it's gonna have to go

You always know that you'll be back in the cold

Point of departure sublimated in a song

It's always coming to give me that hope for just a second then it's gone but--



Sound system won't you bring me back up

It's the one thing that i can depend on....



Static pulse inside of music bringing us escape

It's always temporary, changing nothing in its wake

Just a second where we're leaving all this shit behind

Just a second but it's leaving just this much in mind:

To resist despair, that second makes you see

To resist despair, you can't change everything

To resist despair in this world is--what it is, what it is, what it is to be free



Sound system won't you bring me back up

It's the one thing that i can depend on...



Sound! system!

Sound! system!



Wake up turn my box on bust the shade and let the sun in

Times getting tougher 'bout time to start runnin'

Box in my hand, music by my side

Swingin' to the rhythm of the music by side



Sound system won't you bring me back up

It's the one thing that i can depend on...



Sound! system!

Sound! system!
