Lyrics

Heavy!
Like the beat of a drum
Heavy!
The thump of my strum
Ohhhh yeah, yeah
I learned my place
Heavy!
Playing the double bass
Sitting in my room at night
Listening to my parents fight
Like an egg that had cracked
Into a corner I was backed
Nothing could conceal
The fright they made me feel
Hiding in my room
Shrouded in the gloom
But in the corner it did stand
The instrument that held my hand
And taught a way to be free
Of domestic insanity
Heavy!
Like the beat of a drum
Heavy!
The thump of my strum
Ohhhh yeah, yeah
I learned my place
Heavy!
Playing the double bass
Like thunder when it struck,
The strings that I plucked
Resonating with my heart
As my family tore apart
Some people should never,
Be in a relationship together
Anger is infectious
Destroying all that's precious
But the deep beat of my bass
Kept the tears from my face
Lost in the heavy melody
And not in their tragedy
But in the corner it did stand
The instrument that held my hand
And taught a way to be free
Of domestic insanity
Heavy!
Like the beat of a drum
Heavy!
The thump of my strum
Ohhhh yeah, yeah
I learned my place
Heavy!
Playing the double bass
In the end it ran it's course
And ended in their divorce
But the scars of their fights
Last through the night
Ohhhhhhhh!
Heavy!
Like the beat of a drum.
Heavy!
The thump of my strum
Ohhhh yeah, yeah
I learned my place
Heavy!
Playing the double bass
