Lotus Eater Song Lyrics

Lotus Eater by Foster The People

[Verse 1] I could never be like you
I will never talk like that
Smiling with a sparkle drink
Stumbling in your lipstick mess
Molly was the loss of me
Yeah, it was a tragedy
You keep hanging on
Making noise
Waiting all night
For someone to take you home
[Pre-Chorus 1] And I know you know I’m not the one
Sorry I was late, I didn’t want to come
[Chorus 1] Aaaaaahhhhhh!
Oh no, man, (?) I was born
Oooh
(Laughter)
[Verse 2] Well my eyes were wandering
Can we just eat the news?
Dance around the room
In scattered point of views
Well take my health for free
Yeah, just count to three
Wish that I could blink
Turn all your words into ice cubes
So I could fill my drink
[Pre-Chorus] And I know you know I’m not the one
I’m sorry I was late
It’s time I just won’t-
[Chorus 2] Aaaaaahhhhhh!
Oh no, man, I think I gotta run!
Oooh
(Laughter)
[Bridge] Well, words that haunt
When you’re sitting on the/your couch
Having fun, just being by yourself
Wondering why
We can’t convince your love
The things that we got
We always want more
[Pre-Chorus 3, Spoken] I know you’d rather have me fake it
But I’m not gonna make it
[Chorus 2] Aaaaaahhhhhh!
Oh no, man, I think I gotta run!
Oooh
(Laughter)
