Modest Mouse – Bury Me With It lyrics

we were shootin at a mound of dirt
well nothing was broken nothing was hurt
but i probably really should have been at work
but when my free time gone would you promise me this that you'll

please bury me with it
please bury me with it

well as sure as plans come i know that they end
and if im here when that happens just promise me this my friend

please bury me with it
please bury me with it

i just dont need none of that mad max bullshit

well the suit got tight and it split at the seams
but i kept it out of habit and kept it real clean
but if its getting faded and runs out of thread
could you do this for me my friend

please bury me with it
please bury me with it

well we move to the left and we move to the right
and sure as hell stayed out almost every single night
but if the partys over if the fun has to end
could you do this for me my friend

please bury me with it
please bury me with it

good news for people who.. love bad news

we've lost the plot and we just can't choose
we are hummingbirds who are just not willing to move
and thats good news for people who love bad news
we are hummingbirds who lost the plot
and we will not move
we have good news for anyone
who loves bad news

we were aiming for the moon we were shooting at the stars
but the kids were just shooting at the buses and the cars
dont drink the water dont you breathe the air
and if its gotten to that point then I have to declare

please bury me with it
please bury me with it

well fads they come and fads they go
and god i love that rock and roll
well the point was fast but it was too blunt to miss
life handed us a paycheck, we said we worked harder than this

please bury me with it
please bury me with it

oh shit now!

we are hummingbirds who are just not willing to move
and theres good news for people who love bad news

we are humminbirds who lost the plot
and we will not move
we have great news for anyone who loves bad news
