These, I must say, are completely wrong. I can't be bothered typing them out myself. Methinks you just went to lyricsmania.com (which also has the wrong lyrics) and copy then pasted it.

what a hell... damn! it this lyrics are sooo wrong! anyway, is a great song tough...

All the lyrics this guy posted are completely wrong. But I'm too tired to type them all new now. I just did it for "Hours", maybe someone else will do the rest.

i love the drumming in this song. such a good beat.

Beneath the cigarrettes and sugar shit of alchol breath
I can taste the ocean on your tongue

amazing. i say this only once when i say, that i have never felt so much soul fire with each breath and each chord that is created from this band.

Damnit I went to a TVotR Concert and I's so pissed off they didn't play this. After that it was the greatest concert EVER. Fucking rocked.

because i'm so incredibly annoyed with these wrong lyrics here are the ones directly from the booklet:

Playhouses
Swept away by the river now
Confounded
Sound it out now

Vodka cran in your hand and whose little girl are you now
Oh i'd ask for this dance but i know you'd play like you don't know how
What your coy smile exposes
A recent memory of when we shit our bed of roses

And i know the moon above is shining down
But not for our love
so for who?
so for who?

Beneath the cigarettes and sugar shit of alcohol breath
i can taste the ocean on your tounge
Remember when we sat on the sidewalk of your old block
Against the wall under the stars
Talking about love's meaning
Well, i wasn't dreaming

I meant every word
Just didn't know your demons
Do you know mine, babe?
Are we wasting time, babe?

Playhouses
Haunted by
Broken spirits
Just trying to get high

Well we chose the course but
The weather changed
and the river froze
And when it thawed it was running
Backwards and dry now
I suppose it's appropriate to cry now

Over wasted time
And naked lies
Still get wasted sometime

Anyways, this is by far one of the most straight-forward songs on the album. Yet, in my mind one of the most powerful songs, and in my opinion, one my favorites off the album.

Anyways hopefully these lyrics will bring some happiness to this page. The lyrics are amazing and now they can be enjoyed in their true form!

I love the sort of charged kinetic energy in this song, that sense of rampant, almost wanton sexuality. TVOTR seems to have so many songs that tug at those primal impulses in man. I swear, they play their listeners like instruments.

I had it tagged incorrectly as 'wolf like me' and I was always amazed by the geniusness of having a song that really kind of sounds like a howling wolf. I have to say, that I never really paid attention to the lyrics and I was really surprised, that it's actually called 'playhouses'.
