Ahhh... Men

Album: Say Anything (2009)

  • Staring out the window of our tour bus
    And it's just the horny driver and us.
    Sit and trade wit, and smoke and we cuss
    Talking about our friendly border drug bust.

    And I know the future's cloudy and gray
    Record like mine, give up or go gay.
    You're looking down at me with blue and black eyes
    Pissing down a storm from purple night skies.

    Ah-uh-huh, ah-uh-huh, ah-haa, ah-uh-huh

    And I know the concept's muddy and trite
    That all that is large and all that is slight
    Is flowing in the stream of holy flood lights
    Writing holy books, lord knows we bite.

    But if this is your will and my testament
    I will bow to no belief that they bent
    Still I'm just a sperm begat from your love
    Basking in the bread, the blood of your dove

    Ah-uh-huh, ah-uh-huh, ah-haa, ah-uh-huh

    Can I lie with you in your grave?
    Can I lie with you in your grave?

    There's a crack in the edge at the end of the world
    Where I will sit with my love in this fluorescent swirl
    Eat us up, break it down, to the tiniest cell
    In our room with a view and a window to hell.

    Where those who buried bodies in their barrels of fun
    Will be marched through museums that display what they've done.
    They'll be shot up through the sky by a cannon of sin
    Where we'll reluctantly let them in.

    So can I lie in your grave, at the edge at the end of the world
    Where I will sit with my love in this fluorescent swirl
    Eat us up, break it down, to the tiniest cell
    In our room with a view and a window to hell.

    Where those who buried bodies in their barrels of fun
    Will be marched through museums that display what they've done.
    They'll be shot up through the sky by a cannon of sin
    Where we'll reluctantly let them in.

    So can I lie in your grave?
    (Can I lie with you in your grave?) [x2]
    So can I lie in your grave?
    (Can I lie with you in your grave?) [x2]
    So can I lie in your grave? Publisher: Sony/ATV Music Publishing LLC
