Countdown
Yeah Yeah Yeahs Lyrics

Trail of red like the sea
I see a path that's colored red, like the waves of an ocean.

Well I'm the son of a crowded bed
I am the product of a situation where many people were present in a confined space.

Find your love's gonna pout for me
I know that your affection will ultimately become reserved for me.

Your love that breathes, breeds
Your love is alive, it grows and develops in strength over time.

Gonna paste up our damn heads
We will be stuck together, in a state of permanence that cannot be undone.

Gonna drop, gonna drop, gonna count for me
We will have a swift and decisive conclusion to this chapter in our lives.

Your love that breaths, breeds
Your love is something that is constantly evolving and becoming more powerful.

Your love that's catchin' the breeze.
Your love can be found and felt even in the natural environment, where it interacts with the elements.

Waitin' for a chance to pass
I am patiently anticipating an opportunity to come my way.

Some ho say some say now go
Some people are in favor of taking action now, while others are not.

Lookin' for a chance for speed
I am searching for an opportunity to move quickly and efficiently.

High time getting past black
It is long overdue for us to overcome difficulties and obstacles in our path.

We'll count down (8x)
We will commence a countdown, and it will consist of eight repetitions.

We'll count down (16x)
We will commence a countdown, and it will consist of sixteen repetitions.
