    Why'd you cut holes in the face of the moon base?
    Don't you know about the temperature change
    In the cold black shadow?
    Are you mad at your walls
    Or hoping that an unknown force can repair things for you?
    Pardon all the time that you've thrown into your pale grey garden?
    If the ship will never come you've got to move along
    Even a bird would want a taste of dirt from abyssal dark
    The prick of a feather could make a kingdom burn and the bloodshed start
    The falling apart
    Made me a shadow in the shape of wonder
    The waves of black
    If she's going under I can hold my breath till the sky comes back
    Or drown like a rat, rat, rat
    He's a rat!
    To catch a monster
    We make a movie
    Set the tempo
    And cut and cut its brains out
    It will inspire on the burning pyre
    Half the distance
    Half the motion
    Communication
    It's easy as the ocean

    You all miss the point here.

    MgMt isnt a boyband, seriously.
    Boybands are groups of attractive young men who do purposely hip songs, and are nromally used for money and advertising like the Jonas Brothers are.
    Mgmt are real musicians, who write their own songs and try to be as experimental and great as possible. They just happen to both be men and young.
