Neighborhood #4 (7 Kettles)

Arcade Fire

1. I am waitin’ ’til I don’t know when
   cause I’m sure it’s gonna happen then
   Time keeps creepin’ through the neighborhood
   Killing old folks, wakin’ up babies just like we knew it would
   
   Burning all the old folks the witches and the liars
   My eyes are covered by the hands of my unborn kids
   but my heart keeps watchin’ through the skin of my eyelids

R: They say a watched pot won’t ever boil
   Well I closed my eyes and nothin’ changed
   Just some water getting hotter in the flames
   
3. It’s not a lover I want no more
   and it’s not heaven I’m pining for
   But there’s some spirit I used to know
   That’s been drowned out by the radio

R: They say a watched pot won’t ever boil
   You can’t raise a baby on motor oil
   Just like a seed down in the soil you gotta give it time
