Smash Mouth - The Crawl lyrics

rate me

Hey cousin, I know you

Not long ago in the city zoo

You haven't changed

You still ain't standin' up straight

And I been thinkin' 'bout what we've become

Or what we haven't, just look what we've done

Still making fire out of sticks and stones

Standing united all together alone

Do the crawl, do the crawl, do the crawl

Back into the woods

Do the slide, do the slide, yeah you and me

Back into the sea

Hey sister how you been

Last time I saw ya you were wearing a fin

Times haven't changed, I'm still swimmin'

Got to the top to get myself some air

I realized that it was better down there

It's like a jungle but there ain't no laws

No helping hands just grubby paws

Do the crawl, do the crawl, do the crawl

Back into the woods

Do the slide, do the slide, yeah you and me

Back into the sea

My naked eye saw a fly in a jar with a hole in the lid

To tell the kid exactly where not to go

I saw the puppet string screwed into his head

I heard the puppet lie

I felt the banner shred

I can smell the smoke

As well as a rat

I can teach that dog

I can learn from a cat

Throw it in reverse

So I can hit erase

I can taste the blood

Do the crawl, do the crawl, do the crawl

Back into the woods

Do the slide, do the slide, yeah you and me

Back into the sea
