Modest Mouse » Float On Lyrics

We were shooting at a mound of dirt
Well nothing was broken nothing was hurt
But I probably really should have been at work
But if my free time is gone would you promise me this that you’ll
Please bury me with it
Please bury me with it
Well as sure as planets come I know that they end
And if I’m here when that happens here promise me this my friend
Please bury me with it
Please bury me with it
Well this shoe got tired and it split at the seams
But I kept it out of habit and I kept it real clean
But if it’s a getting faded and it’s a running out of thread
Would you do this for me my friends and please just
Please bury me with it
Please bury me with it
Well we move to the left and we move to the right
And as sure as hell we stayed out almost every single night
But if the party is over if the fun has to end
Would you do this for me my friend and please just
Please bury me with it
Please bury me with it
We are humming birds who lost the flock
And we will not move
And there’s good news for anyone who loves bad news
We are humming
We were among at the moon we’re shooting at the stars
But the kids were just shooting at the buses and the cars
So don’t drink that water don’t you breathe the air
Then if you down that poison I have to declare that you can
Please bury me with it
Please bury me with it
Well fast they come and fast they go
And god I love that rock’n roll
Well the point was fast but it was to blunt to miss
Like life’s paycheck we worked harder than this
Please bury me with it
Please bury me with it
We are humming birds who lost the flock
And we will not move
And there’s good news for anyone who loves bad news
We are humming birds who lost the flock
And we will not move
And there’s good news for anyone who loves bad news
