B & C

don't panic though you shiver
though the spies and sparks are coming
though the yellow sky means trouble
you still ride high speed parachutes
but you know we never change
viva la vida has become so low
but everything's not lost
politiks are in my place
the scientist is making clocks
God put a smile on your face
a rush of blood to the head
is a warning sign of daylight
your life in technicolor lets you see
the green eyes in amsterdam
hidden by white shadows
the speed of sound will fix you
but what if you got lost?
x & y make 42
yes, death and all his friends
all ride the strawberry swing
they talk about a message
as they dive into a glass of water
violet hill hid the cemeteries of london
and now you're back to square one

singing home from the metro to coldplay on an autumn night

by Molly Malone


The darkness squeezes between the city lights
Yellow flashes cutting across its peace
Her voice harmonizes to impossible heights

Look at the stars

We don’t know what we’ll do when we arrive
We only know Fairfax city and crooked yellow lines
Chris Martin leads and we’re all glad to be alive

Look how they shine for you

I’m the picky one, no Ting Tings and Muse
I want something to sing to a yellow moon
We all know this is something we’ll lose

And all the things that you do

The windows up because the backseat was cold
The lights I hope will flash yellow glow red instead
We sit while my melody and their harmonies fold

Look how they shine for you

Look how they shine for you



Look how they shine for you
