Ramona Falls, Russia

Ramona Falls, the side project of one of Menomena’s (watch out: ugly website) singers: Brent Knopf. His first album ‘Intuit‘ came out August 18, 2009 on Barsuk Records.  It has some very good songs and one of them is beneath… Check his MySpace for four other songs. The lyrics to the song are beneath as well. Couldn’t find them anywhere else. But English is to me a second languange and the lyrics are let us say deeper then average, and I could have misheard some [words]. Please help me out (comments) if that is really the case….

 

 

Lyrics to the song Russia [mp3]

I visit to Russia
And I started folding
Until then one precious
Doll I had [horded]

 

All of Siberia
Doesn’t Love [here you are/heria(?)]
“Go”, she said, “Too little too late.”

 

A trip to the Nile
Where I started swimming
Off streams, till [I’ve never] known
They fell most [beginning/thrilling]
Of Gods purest water
Of Abba the Father
“To heal her” She said: “Too little too late.”

 

I Sailed to Komodo
I fought with the dragons
When it was over
Their tails where wagging
For I taught them tricks
Said: “Sit, dragon, sit!”
[Upon her pare she said: “Too little too late.”

 

I rode into China
I studied the war
'Cause I [read the serpent signs/like the ??? Times/I love serpentines]
It/have caused you to fall
I spilled out a fortune
I found [absorption/extortion]
“Well here you go”, she said: “Too little too late.”
She said: “Too little too late,
Too little too late.”

    Here’s a link to the official video for Russia

    Here are the corrected Lyrics. I’m almost positive these are right…

    I visited Russia
    And I started folding
    Until in one precious
    Doll I had horded

    All of Siberia
    and I said “Love, here you
    Go”, she said, “Too little too late.”

    A trip to the Nile
    Where I started swimming
    Upstream, ’til I finally
    found the spring brimming
    With God’s purest water
    From Abba the Father
    To heal her
    She said: “Too little too late.”

    I Sailed to Komodo
    I fought with the dragons
    When it was over
    Their tails where wagging
    For I taught them tricks
    Said: “Sit, dragon, sit!”
    I bought her a pet
    she said: “Too little too late.”

    I rode into China
    I studied the wall
    And I lapped it 7 times
    which caused it to fall
    It spilled out her fortune
    I found luck’s origin
    “Well here you go”, she said: “Too little too late.”
    She said: “Too little too late,
    Too little too late.”
