Lyrics Every Coin - Spring Offensive

Every Coin

Their orders fell from their mouths like spit
Circle like wolves but speaking like me
I hoped this was a case of collect and retreat
But they took off my suit and tipped the coins from my wallet
Well I swear I saw one smile as I found myself on my knees
He said I looked so tired and that I should stay there and eat
He said I should be grateful, that I should try to swallow hard
I looked up from the floor and I said I just don’t know where to start
I looked up from the floor and I said I just don’t know where to start
Please take a drink it seems to help
The hundreds I’ve seen coughing up on their wealth
Get the first one down and the others will follow
As long as it takes every coin must be swallowed
Every coin must be swallowed…
As long as it takes!
I reached for pennies at first because they look so small
But their taste was too bitter, I had to spit them out on the floor
I tried to force down a pound but I started to choke
You see the weight and the gold, yeah it sticks in your throat
Well a hand on my back and a voice in my ear
Says credit cards are next so the work starts here
Just open your mouth and push it down hard
I looked up from the floor I say there’s just too much I can’t
Please take a drink it seems to help
The hundreds I’ve seen coughing up on their wealth
Get the first one down and the others will follow
As long as it takes every coin must be swallowed
As long as it takes
Every coin must be swallowed
As long as it takes
As long as it takes!
