Jandek - In The Cave lyrics

rate me

All day long we knew we were playing with fire

We could tell by the burn marks

All day we was inside the cave

We was playing with fire

What else happened, we didn't know

We paid

We surely did pay

I'm gonna get out of it

By going into it more

I'm gonna get out of it

Yes I am

And I'm gonna go into it more, too

What have I got to lose?

Not much

I'm gonna get out of it

By going into it more

But I got my stopwatch

I see time ticking

I see the numbers change

And then you get in the rhythm

You get to know a Monday

You get to know a Sunday

And the water

Yeah and the creaking grind

All that black water

Gets into your skin

Makes you want to forget

Some of those days

But I'll meet you on a Sunday

I'll meet you on a Tuesday

I'll meet you any any any any any day

But who wants to go down fast?

I just want to stay alive

We were into the cave

Playin' with fire all day

It cost a lot

They took it real fast

All of a sudden you turn around and say hey

I need to exercise

Hey, I need to stretch me
