Paroles

0:11Palms are fitted black
0:13And finely tuned
0:17To triggers
0:19Cause bodies that tremble
0:24But this mud looks shallow
0:25From the beach
0:28When we hide behind
0:29Such ugly faces
0:31And the dark eyed
0:33Woman lifts her
0:34Why do we hide behind
0:36Such ugly faces
0:38Child bearing games from the
0:41Streets down to the shores
0:43They're playing
0:45Waterways
0:46Open in an obscene gaping gasp
0:51But this mud looks shallow
0:53From the beach
0:54When we hide behind
0:56Such ugly faces
0:58And the dark eyed
0:59Woman lifts her head
1:01Why do we hide behind
1:03Such ugly faces
1:08Rally all your men
1:11There is work to be done
1:14Still we don't have the time
1:16For speaking out of place
1:23He won't come down
1:26He won't come down
1:29He won't come down
1:33He won't come down
1:45Lengths of snakes match
1:47Each silent syllable
1:50With eyes like these
1:52Face glistening with
1:54Suspense of a scalpel blade
1:56Clockwork calculating
1:57Surgical precision
1:59But this shallow from the beach
2:02When we hide behind
2:03Such ugly faces
2:05And the dark eyed
2:06Woman lifts her head
2:09Why do we hide behind
2:10Such ugly faces
2:16Rally all your men
2:18There is work to be done
2:22Still we don't have the time
2:24For speaking out of place
2:30He won't come down
2:34He won't come down
2:37He won't come down
2:40He won't come down
2:44He won't come down
2:47He won't come down
2:51He won't come down
2:54He won't come down
3:30Palms are fitted black
3:33Finely tuned
3:37To stomachs that
3:39Swallowed whole that bayou
3:43But this mud looks
3:44Shallow from the beach
3:47When we hide behind
3:48Such ugly faces
3:50And the dark eyed
3:51Woman lifts her head
3:54Why do we hide behind
3:55Such ugly faces
Palms are fitted black
And finely tuned
To triggers
Cause bodies that tremble
But this mud looks shallow
From the beach
When we hide behind
Such ugly faces
And the dark eyed
Woman lifts her
Why do we hide behind
Such ugly faces
Child bearing games from the
Streets down to the shores
They're playing
Waterways
Open in an obscene gaping gasp
But this mud looks shallow
From the beach
When we hide behind
Such ugly faces
And the dark eyed
Woman lifts her head
Why do we hide behind
Such ugly faces
Rally all your men
There is work to be done
Still we don't have the time
For speaking out of place
He won't come down
He won't come down
He won't come down
He won't come down
Lengths of snakes match
Each silent syllable
With eyes like these
Face glistening with
Suspense of a scalpel blade
Clockwork calculating
Surgical precision
But this shallow from the beach
When we hide behind
Such ugly faces
And the dark eyed
Woman lifts her head
Why do we hide behind
Such ugly faces
Rally all your men
There is work to be done
Still we don't have the time
For speaking out of place
He won't come down
He won't come down
He won't come down
He won't come down
He won't come down
He won't come down
He won't come down
He won't come down
Palms are fitted black
Finely tuned
To stomachs that
Swallowed whole that bayou
But this mud looks
Shallow from the beach
When we hide behind
Such ugly faces
And the dark eyed
Woman lifts her head
Why do we hide behind
Such ugly faces
