Lyrics Shake Your Bones - Kill the Vultures

Shake Your Bones

Fortune teller tellin' me
The year of the rat is upon us at last
And its gonna last us til the calendar crash
I flip page after page after hours after days
After some after shock after all that’s the chase
Trying to catch a breath before it escapes
Don’t show me your face until you show me your faith
Drop down on your bad knee, yes, in your good clothes
Reach for the sky, that’s where everybody good goes
Round and round and two flights down
Keep your eyes to the ceiling and your ear to the ground
I hear 'em chant in pain as they dance with their hands in
Chains;
at last there’s a chance for rain
Avalanche is the name, I got this here covered
I’m sorry that you suffered, now go and tell the others to
Shake your bones, rattle your nerves, chase the devil out
Shake your bones, rattle your nerves, chase the devil out
Shake your bones, rattle your nerves, chase the devil out
Why you turning back, there ain’t no turning back now
I told 'em listen, they didn’t
I told 'em look, and they missed it
They’re looking ignorant staring off in the distance
Don’t blink, you might miss the pivotal plot
Don’t think, you are what a criminal’s not
I shot holes in they theories til the light shined clearly
Trick magic, magic trick, that’s their logic disappearing
I watch the drama go up like marijuana smoke
What, you’re on a roll?
Only if you’re dominoes
Falling back, laying down
You’re tresspassing on sacred ground
When you’re breaking down alone does it make a sound?
Probably not, that’s my two cents
All these pickpockets got me burying my blueprints
Caught you red handed/ here’s the blacklist to prove it
There ain’t nothing to prove/there ain’t nothing to lose just
Shake your bones, rattle your nerves, chase the devil out
Shake your bones, rattle your nerves, chase the devil out
Shake your bones, rattle your nerves, chase the devil out
Why you turning back, there ain’t no turning back now
