REM - 9 - 9 lyrics

rate me

Steady repetition is a compulsion mutually reenforced.

Now what does that mean?

Is there a just contradiction?

Nothing much.

Now I lay me down to sleepI pray the lord my soul to keep.

If I should die before I wakeI pray the lordhesitate.

Got to punch

Right on target

Twisting tongues

Gotta stripe down his back

All nine yards down her back

Give me a couple

Don't give me a couple of pointers

Turn to lies and conversation fear

Got to punch

Right on target

Twisting tongues

Gotta stripe down his back

All nine yards down her back

Give me a couple

Don't give me a couple of pointers

Turn to lies and conversation fear

What is my mind?

What is my mind?

Steady repetition is a compulsion mutually reenforced.

Now what does that mean?

Is there a just contradiction?

Nothing much.

Now I lay me down to sleepI pray the lord my soul to keep.

If I should die before I wakeoh come onhesitatehesitate.

Got to punch

Right on target

Twisting tongues

Gotta stripe down his back

All nine yards down her back

Give me a couple

Don't give me a couple of pointers

Turn to lies and conversation fear

Conversation fear. conversation fear. conversation fear.
