New Cannonball Blues |
Hey girls, hey boys no don’t mind the noise |
It’s just the sound of being dragged ahead |
It’s just a pornographic annulationship |
As we watch the spider’s web eat itself |
All this death above extinguishing |
All that you’ve ever known |
Turn your touch screens off and start harvesting |
The seeds that your parents sew |
It’s got me singing blues that hit you like a cannonball |
Loud enough to break your bones |
But it was written in blood before they wrote it in stone |
So, sing it with me like it’s your own |
You’re gettin’bothered staying low like under four hundred blows |
Makes you feel like you are all by yourself |
So when the chance comes along like where you could help right a wrong |
The bullshit’s got you stuck up on the shelf |
«But it’s heavy» |
«I'm not ready» |
Do you feel like you’re swimming in the notes? |
But baby, follow the sound |
That’s shooting out of your crown |
There’s only one way up from the floor |
It’s got me fucked up and dried up and fed up can’t get up And bleeding and crying like I’m mad at the soul |
«I'm a carbon copy |
Now they got me» |
Up oh look at where we’re going |
It’s got you strung out and bothered and caught up And drowning and feeling and shot up And feeling you gotta run |
You’re a carbon copy |
Now they got me Up oh look at where we’re going |
Now gonna kick toe |
Gonna run right forward |
Lord not the first time we’ve imposed a locked door |
Oh critter fight back it’s your sole reward |
Below with your fist up Brush the dust off |
Boy, it’s got got it’s got me singing |
Blues that hit you like a cannonball |
Loud enough to break your bones |
But it was written in blood before they wrote it in stone |
So sing it with me like it’s your own |
Those blues they hit you like a cannonball |
Loud enough to break your bones |
But wish the rising in love before we’re taking the throne |
So sing it with me like it’s your own |
You better dust off and get up, get ready to push up Hey baby get ready 'cause yea yea it’s gonna come |
If we want to see what’s possible for a, a better way right now |
You better dust off and get up, get ready to push up Hey baby get ready 'cause yea yea it’s gonna come |
When the truth is spoken |
Love’s unbroken |
Nothing’s gonna weigh us down |
