lyrics

The lazy days the daisy chains around our necks as we out run the worry warts we run slow with happy thoughts here come the choke the breakneck pace eye to the ground the rats will race as we go rolling to the end we can go round and round again (?) another bite another sell I see you I see myself the morning marketplace is full of better skins and you can lose me like a child I will make it worth your while I'll give good chase I'll be the man the man is a piece of fruit too bruised to be around when numbers spin he keeps the rounds a-pouring in here comes the slope the stumble home the restless night the overflow gone under I've gone under the sea floor on the sea floor i hit the deck for the count I've been all washed out they say row to the rhythm I rowed to the sound the sound of engines sinking further down this is the way it always goes you told me wrong this is the way it all still goes when I'm gone
