But you carved out a name; you carved out a name for yourself

Song: Perfume Genius - Lookout, Lookout
Album: Learning (2010)
Label: Matador Records

LMary, Mary-belle within a bird-cage cell,
All your neighbors know what your mother sells
But you carved out a name; you carved out a name for yourself

Through a hole to the railway
And Brian’s face down

Look out, look out
Look out, look out
Look out, look out
Look out, look out
Look out, look out
There are murders about
