R.E.M. - The Ascent of Man lyrics

[R.E.M. - The Ascent of Man lyrics]

So hesitation pulled me back
I'm stronger when I don't attract
In your eyes I'm a lamb without a rack
And I am getting confused
I'm a cactus trying to be a canoe
As you pan for ore in the desert, floored
I say to you that I could never imagine
A place so beautiful
I could never steal your gold away

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
(I try to walk like a big wham bam
I came across like a battering ram)
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
(I try to float like a Telegram Sam
I'm trying to divine you)

My book is called "The Ascent of Man"
I marked your chapter with a catamaran
The accent's off, but I am what I am



Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
(I try to walk like a big wham bam
I came across like a battering ram)
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
(I try to float like a Telegram Sam
I'm trying to divine you)

I looked for you, it's my last grandstand
A motorscootered goat legged Pan
Figure eighting in quicksand

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
(I try to walk like a big wham bam
I came across like a battering ram)
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
(I try to float like a Telegram Sam
I'm trying to divine you)

So hesitation pulled me back
I'm stronger when I don't attract
And with my hands tied I won't crack
