Intro

 You are a waterfall

 Waiting inside a well

You are a wrecking ball

 Before the building fell

And every lightning rod

 Has got to watch the storm cloud come.

And I’ve heard of pious men

 And I’ve heard of dirty fiends

But you don’t often hear

 Of us ones in between

And I’ve heard of creatures

 Who eat their babies;

 And I wonder if they stop

 To think about the taste.

I saw the sun go down

 Outside of Arkansas;

 And I saw the sun come up

 Somewhere in Illinois.

And in the darkness

 I taught myself to hate.

 But where were you, oh where were you?

 And where the fuck did the sun go?

 And I am a creature.

 And I am survivin’.

 And I want to be alone

 But I want your body.

 So when you eat me,

 Mother and baby,

 Oh baby, mother me,

 Before you eat me.

 And you should always pass

 When you get the inside lane.

 Don’t pull your hair out;

 I won’t pull my hair out.

 For I have never seen the sun

 That did not bury his fears in the side of the world.

 And the day is done.

You are a waterfall

Waiting inside a well

You are a wrecking ball

Before the building fell

 And I will mutter like a lover

 Who speaks in tongues, oh he speaks in tongues.

 Oh I speak in tongues.

Uh. Clean.
