PRIMUS - Over The Falls lyrics

rate me

They broke out in laughter again,<br>His lip beaded with sweat as they strapped him in,<br>And he stood by and waited to be called.<br>The talk was of times that had gone by<br>And the quantity and quality of women they lie.<br>His eyes welled with wet and his mouth had gone dry.<br><br>As he stood by and waited to be called.<br>He stood by and waited to be called.<br>He stood by and waited like the others before<br>For his turn to go over the falls.<br><br>He got up and tried it again.<br>For lack of persistence is surely a sin.<br>As he stood by and waited to be called,<br>He looked to the lightning with glee<br>And admired his vessel for it's symmetry,<br>Feeling twelve units shy of a bachelor's degree.<br><br>As he stood by and waited to be called.<br>He stood by and waited to be called.<br>He stood by and waited like the others before<br>For his turn to go over the falls.
