Fair To Midland - Coppertank Island lyrics

rate me

Ladies and gentlemen

We are in a little bit of a predicament

He said take your time

But didn't back his words

Heroes and holy ghosts

Which one of you steps

On the others' toes

And then risks his neck like

It's a moving target?

You?

Was that just you being stubborn?

Can't you say pretty please?

Wasn't it an eggshell carpet

That brought you to your knees?

If the right built the anchor

And the wrong have set sail

I'm a whale, I'm a well, I'm a whale

Busy bees and worry worts

We are not in the business of fireworks

Or turning heads

That whistle in the dark

Sitting ducks and guinea pigs

Are the first to catch word

Of straws in the wind don't stop them

Remember this it's just two cents

Two cents never made you rich

Was that just you being stubborn?

Can't you say pretty please?

Wasn't it an eggshell carpet

That brought you to your knees?

If the right built the anchor

And the wrong have set sail

I'm a whale, I'm a well, I'm a whale

You?

I've shown my white feathers..!

Was that just you being stubborn?

Can't you say pretty please?

Wasn't it an eggshell carpet

That brought you to your knees?

If the right built the anchor

And the wrong have set sail

I'm a whale, I'm a well, I'm a whale
