Blame it on the Tetons [snip]

Finley very much enjoys when we play Modest Mouse (usually very loud), and goes nuts for a track called 'The View'. He dances like crazy and screams a lot (in a lets tear the roof off this party kind of way).
This post isn't about Finley's music taste though, it is about how I have become quite a fan of 'Blame it on the Tetons'. The last verse grips me; the style of the song changes a bit and becomes a lot more mellow. I guess it is a bit of a perspective on "No man is an island" (maybe it is just me though). So, with no more faffing, the last verse of the song:

Everyone's a building burning
With no one to put the fire out
Standing at the window looking out
Waiting for time to burn us down
Everyone's an ocean drowning
With no one really to show how
They might get a little better air
If they turned themselves into a cloud
