Nail It Down - Meat Puppets
IN OR AROUND THIS COLD AND BROKEN SIGHT
IN THE HEAT OF EVENTS GOT ONE THING RIGHT
I WALKED THROUGH AN INVISIBLE FIRE
I GOT BURNED I REMEMBER AND I STILL GOT THE SCAR
LIKE THE LOOSENED CONNECTION ON YOUR PERSONAL CIRCUIT
DON＇T NEED A HAMMER JUST TO NAIL IT DOWN
YOU KNOW THE THING WITH THE SIDEWAYS GLANCE;
IN THE HEAT OF EVENTS THERE＇S A LITTLE CHANCE
LITTLE FACE WITH A PAINTED GRIN COMES THE REALIZATION
YOU MUST BACKWARDS WALK IN
IF IT TRIES TO ESCAPE YOU THROUGH AN OPEN WINDOW
DON＇T NEED A HAMMER JUST TO NAIL IT DOWN
STEP ASIDE TO MISS THE OPENING VERSE;
CATCH THE FULL-ON BLAST OF WHAT＇S A LITTLE WORSE
WITHIN A POND DOWN INSIDE SOMEWHERE THERE＇S
A RUSTLE OF QUIET AND THE SALT OF AIR
