Intro :
Ode to the center of the earth again
The place where it's hot love
You know it hurts to breathe in
On the watershed you balance on he's begging in
Well did he ever know ? Will he ever know ?
The trees in the moonshine are a dark lattice
See a catalogue of the angle you n otice
In a vacuum you are charged to re cord this
So you won't make it easy on me
I can't go into this no more
It puts too many thorns on my mind
And the necessary balloon lies a corpse on the floor
We've pissed on far too ma-n y sp rites
And they're all standing up for their rights
(pause)
Instrumental :
Born on a desert floor, you've the deepest thirst
And you came to my sweet shore to in dulge it
With the worn and dreaming eyes of an orphan
But there is not enough, there is not enough
Out of the gunny sack for red rabbits
Into the crucible to be rendered an emulsion
And we can't allow a chance they'd res tore themselves
They can't make it easy on you
Un daunted you bathe in hollow cries
Your voice is swollen and sunburnt eyes
And the warmth letting up and under their skin
So help me, I do n't kn ow I migh t
Just give the old dark side a try
Don't cast your rolling eyes on the shore
Till we even the score
I still owe you for the hole in the floor
And the ghost in the hall
Who de cides who paddles over the falls
Well who makes the call ?
Who makes the call ?
Instrumental :
(2x)
I know there's an event ual
Release from every scale of crime
But the necessary balloon lies a corpse on the floor
We've pissed on far t oo m a-ny goo d in- ten- tion s held by c le-v er s prit es
And t hey're all standing up for their rights
