Rally Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Hook up with me, meet at the rally
Follow the shouting, I am longing for you
Hook up with me, meet at the rally
I waited so long, I couldn't find a cause
Tired or wasted, I think you're decent
I waited so long, there'll be no decency, no
[Chorus]
Don't you give me those shifty eyes, pay attention
Dirty talk, talk, talk quiet
Just as long as you're gone
It won't happen at all
[Verse 2]
Remember the time we talked about everlastings?
Don't you know we'll both fall to pieces too?
April 22nd at the Avalon, you teased me
Hook up with me, meet at the rally
[Chorus]
Shifty eyes, pay attention
Dirty talk, talk, talk quiet
Just as long as you're gone
It won't happen at all
Shifty eyes, pay attention
Dirty talk, talk, talk quiet
Just as long as you're gone
It won't happen at all
Hook up with me, meet at the rally
Follow the shouting, I am longing for you
Hook up with me, meet at the rally
I waited so long, I couldn't find a cause
Tired or wasted, I think you're decent
I waited so long, there'll be no decency, no
[Chorus]
Don't you give me those shifty eyes, pay attention
Dirty talk, talk, talk quiet
Just as long as you're gone
It won't happen at all
[Verse 2]
Remember the time we talked about everlastings?
Don't you know we'll both fall to pieces too?
April 22nd at the Avalon, you teased me
Hook up with me, meet at the rally
[Chorus]
Shifty eyes, pay attention
Dirty talk, talk, talk quiet
Just as long as you're gone
It won't happen at all
Shifty eyes, pay attention
Dirty talk, talk, talk quiet
Just as long as you're gone
It won't happen at all
[Bridge]
Don't go away, we're so near
Look around, you see
There is nothing to say but the things I know
I got nothing to say but the things I know
[Verse 3]
Standing in line, I think you're pretty
Lying on your bed, I think you're pretty too
Young girl, curl your hair at night
Hook up with me, meet at the rally
[Chorus]
Don't you give me those shifty eyes, pay attention
Dirty talk, talk, talk quiet
Just as long as you're gone
It won't happen at all
Shifty eyes, pay attention
Dirty talk, talk, talk louder
Just as long as you're gone
I won't leave you alone
Don't go away, we're so near
Look around, you see
There is nothing to say but the things I know
I got nothing to say but the things I know
[Verse 3]
Standing in line, I think you're pretty
Lying on your bed, I think you're pretty too
Young girl, curl your hair at night
Hook up with me, meet at the rally
[Chorus]
Don't you give me those shifty eyes, pay attention
Dirty talk, talk, talk quiet
Just as long as you're gone
It won't happen at all
Shifty eyes, pay attention
Dirty talk, talk, talk louder
Just as long as you're gone
I won't leave you alone
About
Genius Annotation
The song is about a girl that the narrator met at a rally, loves, and wants to see again.
In France, “un rallye dansant” is a party organized by bourgeois parents for their teen-aged children to meet people from the same social class, and hopefully find “un bon parti” (some rich and beautiful marriage material).
Being from of Versailles, a nest of posh French families, Phoenix members are surely no strangers to this kind of parties.
