Modest Mouse - Beach Side Property lyrics
[Modest Mouse - Beach Side Property lyrics]
On the beach that used to be by the beach
Town hasn't moved but it's getting closer
Losing ground to the sea
Making better views and close relaxing sounds
Ground sure don't like the way
It's treated so now
It's moving back to the sea
Plan to hitch a ride with the river
'Cause deep down plumbing life is
Too cramped for me
I got wood legs and bow legs
And no legs at all
Damn, would you take a collect call?
Oh, no, I don't understand
I got poor eyes and sore eyes
And no eyes at all
Damn, would you take the fall?
Oh, no, I don't like this plan
It was a staple of brass
Tacks and waxed backs oh yeah
A message left on the forehead of God
Sent sealed and signed by the
Saints who sang this song this song
This song
"We're going union like they say
We'll buy the congregation
Then one day, you'll find us sitting
In your chair with big ideas
Of stocks and shares" we're going union
