Lyrics Sponge - R.E.M.

Sponge

Pleasure is melting like chocolate\nMy blue ribbon gumption is gone\nAll my gravy must have soaked into something\nAnd the world\nThe filthy steps, the cold concrete\nThe phony earth below my feet\nThe ancient odor of the street\nYes, the world, world, world, it is a sponge\nYes, the world, world, world, it is a sponge\nAnd when the crisis passes\nWhen the coast is clear\nI’ll be buffed down to a liquid\nAnd the world, world, world, it is a sponge\nYes, the world, world, world, world, it is a sponge\nYes, the world, world, world, world, world, it is a sponge\nThroughout this entire ugly outing\nI’ve been mumbling the convex of what I should be shouting\nBut I’ll soon be silent, you’ll soon hear nothing\n'Cause the world, world, it is a sponge\nThe world, world, world, world, it is a sponge\nWorld, world, world, world, it is a sponge
