[00:00:38] We know that we could sell your magazines

[00:00:41] If only you would give your life to literature just

[00:00:43] Don't read Jane Eyre

[00:00:44] Work on your algebra

[00:00:45] And stand out in the rain

[00:00:46] And give yourself to simple pleasures but

[00:00:48] Never play card games

[00:00:50] Meanwhile back at home

[00:00:51] Not in communist Russia

[00:00:53] Well only on my headphones

[00:00:55] We plot our march onto the town hall

[00:00:57] And if we'd take prisoners or simply simper at those fools

[00:01:06] Please don't tell me to do the math

[00:01:12] Please don't tell me to do the math

[00:01:31] Tonight we're gonna smash this place up

[00:01:33] And then we're gonna deck it out with fairy lights till

[00:01:36] We are content

[00:01:37] And then we'll maybe drown in Dewey decimal

[00:01:39] But leave our shoes off at the door 'cause

[00:01:41] That was the point

[00:01:42] Of us at home with the moon

[00:01:44] Pouring through the curtains working on our attitude

[00:01:47] Towards the second hand book shop employees

[00:01:50] Reading the inscriptions that were never meant for their eyes

[00:01:59] Please don't tell me to do the math

[00:02:04] Please don't tell me to do the math

[00:02:30] Please don't tell me to do the math

[00:02:36] Please don't tell me to do the math

[00:02:41] I'm stitching up each one of your pockets

[00:02:43] So when we are together you'll maybe look a little less bored

[00:02:46] I'm sticking your fingers into sockets

[00:02:49] To kick start your little heart and maybe sleep a tiny bit more

[00:02:52] Oh maybe we should read more into the books that we adore

[00:02:55] Perhaps we should drink less vitamin c

[00:02:57] And now I'm shouting out in capital letters

[00:02:59] I will throw you high fives if you keep your own secrets
