The National - Keep It Upstairs

I was home entertaining some guests when I
Fell off the chair and cracked open my head
Bees flew out and they flew
Up their skirts and they
Cracked open the window and in
Came the myna birds
I was home entertaining some guests when I
Fell off the chair and cracked open my head
Bees flew out and they flew up
Their skirts because they wanted
To travel the world

These are the kinds of things
We should worry about
These are the kinds of things
We should worry about

But I keep it upstairs i keep it upstairs
I just keep it upstairs i keep it upstairs

I was out looking in cars practicing smiles
For the grand finale i got all day
In Cadillac city i got all day
In Cadillac city
I was out walking, looking at posters
Someone famous to kidnap and love

But I keep it upstairs i keep it upstairs
I just keep it upstairs i keep it upstairs

My head is a three-star hotel, oh no
I might be missing something
My head is a three-star hotel, oh no
Killers are calling on me
My head is a three-star hotel, oh no
Feathers are falling on my feet
My head is a three-star hotel, oh no
I might be missing something
My head is a three-star hotel, oh no
Feathers are falling on my feet
My head is a three-star hotel
