[lyrics] Believer

Post by pinkspoons »

Telephone lines all across the world
People flyin all across the world
Angels sing all across the world
Baby, you and me all across the world
Jackie Chan flashing all across the world
Hulk Hogan flashing all across the world
Baby lets go fly all across the world
Baby lets go fly all across the world!

They call me the believer…
They call me the believer…

Spot on, but there is a mumble after each chorus line..
Just can't make that out.

I hate to say this, but I don't think it's "angels sing all across the world" -- I think it's something else. I love that line, but when I've watched footage of John Maus singing this live, it doesn't seem like he's singing that. I'm a pretty good lip-reader (have shitty hearing), and I would propose "a gypsy all across the world" or "ancient sea all across the world." ??? Just mah 2 cents.

I thought it was "ancient sea" too, but I could be wrong.

I'm pretty sure there is no Hulk Hogan or Jackie Chan in the lyrics (but have no idea what those lines might be).

And as for the "ancient seas/angles sing" line, you can clearly see John mouth the word "ship" in the video, so those are wrong as well.

Damn it, why can't we just get some official lyrics?

I'd be willing to bet you an entire pizza with all the toppings of your choice that there IS Hulk Hogan and Jackie Chan in the lyrics.

I agree with you on the "ship" part, though.

I agree with you, but can I still have the pizza? :limpyroll:
