[Verse 1: Johnathan Rice & Jenny Lewis]
I was running from imaginary vampire bats
I was shrieking at the moon while Montezuma laughed
Oh, Aztlan blues, and reds, and greens, and golds
I hope that I die when I'm a hundred years old

[Chorus: Johnathan Rice & Jenny Lewis]
Lookin' like a New Yorker cartoon
Sleepin' in a golden cocoon
With you

[Verse 2: Johnathan Rice & Jenny Lewis]
I was makin' love to my sister from another life
I was stitching seams of my opium dreams with a needle from a camel's eye
If I could give myself some advice, I'd go out of my mind right now
I'd stay here with my baby, forever in the here and now

[Chorus: Johnathan Rice & Jenny Lewis]
Lookin' like a New Yorker cartoon
Sleepin' in a golden cocoon
With you
With you

[Verse 3: Johnathan Rice & Jenny Lewis]
I was returning my salute to the lieutenant paper bag
And my best friend, Farmer Dave, lit me up so I could take a drag
My sister's former flame threw his shirt into the fire
An aging child prodigy, a genius who inspired
[Chorus: Johnathan Rice & Jenny Lewis]
Lookin' like a New Yorker cartoon
Sleeping in a golden cocoon
With you
With you
With you
