The Henney Buggy Band Lyrics - The Avalanche: Outtakes & Extras From Illinois Album - Sufjan Stevens

Oh life, with your shoulders in the mirror 

From the park when Dakota ran and brought you there 

In the car when your mother lost her temper 

The catalog and the catastrophic smile 

Let the bugles play the sermon on the raid 

I kissed you on the face 

I kissed you on the playground 

Oh Father John, you cannot tell me 

What's right and wrong 

You cannot tell me 

I jump before I get around you 

Oh Father John 

Pick it up with the band on the Ronald Reagan Tollway 

(Don't give up, let's go forget about yourself)

Illinois in it ran from the Ronald Reagan Tollway 

Forget about yourself and all your plans 

Oh life, with your colorful surprises 

Eleanor, how you put one on disguises 

Oh Father John, you cannot tell me 

What's right and wrong 

You cannot tell me 

In the mortal life 

Far in the morning light 

We're back from Bloomington 

We let the runners win 

Far in the morning light 

We let the movies play 

A weekend from the holiday 

Pick it up with the band 

On the Ronald Reagan toll way 

(Don't break down, let's go: forget about yourself)

Illinois in it ran from the Ronald Reagan toll way 

(If I'm wrong makes nothing right about yourself) 

Snowmobile on the field where the gunners throw their weight around 

Forget about yourself and all your plans
