Regina Spektor
Rockland County
[Verse 1]
Condescending down the stairs
I'm condescending down the stairs
I look out
For a moment
[Verse 2]
Condescending down the stairs
I'm condescending down the stairs
I look down
At the bubbles
[Chorus]
I just know I got something coming
If I got anything coming at all
I just know I got something coming
If I got anything coming at all
I just know I got something coming
If I got anything coming at all
I just know I got something coming
If I got anything coming at all
[Verse 3]
There are immigrants I know
Who came like me as little kids
They think that today
It's so different
[Verse 4]
And they believe that immigrants
Shouldn't be allowed to come here anymore
That they're bad
For the economy
[Chorus]
Well, I just know they got something coming
If they got anything coming at all
I just know they got something coming
If they got anything coming at all
I just know they got something coming
If they got anything coming at all
I just know they got something coming
If they got anything coming at all
[Verse 5]
When I landed I didn't see The Statue of Liberty
Like so many immigrants
Before me
[Verse 6]
In the airplane I didn't sleep
I stayed up watching "Who Framed Roger Rabbit?"
In English
I loved it - but didn't understand it
[Bridge]
Then I woke up in the middle of the night
In a big room with golden curtains and a fold-out couch
I thought I was in heaven
Or in Cinderella
Then I woke up in the middle of the night
In a big room in my cousin's house in Rockland County
I thought I was in heaven
Or in Cinderella
I heard the swimming pool noises
I didn't know they were swimming pool noises
I heard the swimming pool noises
And there was a dog, a dog, a real live dog
I heard the swimming pool noises
I didn't know they were swimming pool noises
I heard the swimming pool noises
And there was a dog, a dog, a real live dog
