Lyrics

Everything that keeps me together is falling apart
I've got this thing that I consider my only art
Of working people over
My boss just quit the job
Says he's going out to find blind spots
And he'll do it
The third planet's sure that they're being watched
By an eye in the sky that can't be stopped
When you get to the promised land
You're gonna shake the eye's hand
Your heart felt good
It was dripping pitch and made of wood
Your hands and knees
Felt cold and wet on the grass to me
Outside raining, shivering, looking blue
From the cold sunlight that's reflected off the moon
Baby fly, angels fly around you
Reminding you we used to be three and not just two
And that's how the world began
And that's how the world will end
Well, a third had just been made
And we were swimming in the water
Didn't know then
Was it a son, was it a daughter?
And it occurred to me that the animals are swimming
Around in the water, in the ocean in their bodies
Another had been found, another ocean in the planet
Given that our blood was just like the Atlantic and how
The universe is shaped exactly like the earth
If you go straight long enough, you'll end up where you were
The universe is shaped exactly like the earth
If you go straight long enough, you'll end up where you were
The universe is shaped exactly like the earth
Your heart felt good
It was dripping pitch and made of wood
Your hands and knees
Felt cold and wet on the grass to me
Outside raining, shivering, looking blue
From the cold sunlight that's reflected off the moon
Baby fly, angels fly around you
Reminding you we used to be three and not just two
And that's how the world began
And that's how the world will end
