I never spent much time in the USA Lord but I've been in some states The kind that'll leave your head just pounding, and a fog rolling 'round your brain There was something in the water we were drinking in those days Mainly hops and yeast and barley and a lime wedge just for taste And all I know now I have learned in my short time on this earth Yes for all that came before that was forgotten at my birth As the walls cave in around me and the chorus starts to sing I get a sinking feeling I may forget it all again As the walls cave in around me and the chorus starts its verse I'm confronted by the fact that one day we all return to dirt I hope the gods don't hold a grudge for the wicked things that I've done For the bodies at the bottom of the slough Oh I know that you were being polite when you told me that one day I'd get it right But I don't know what it is you think I'll do About them bodies at the bottom of the slough Here we go, once again into darkness I was scared for my friends and I'm scared for all of us And you say I'll pay the price for the way I've lived my life I thank the gods that they didn't leave judgement up to you Here we go Never spent much time in the USA, but I got friends who say it's nice I got friends to say the type of things you don't pass off as good advice There was something in the autumn air that didn't quite seem right Cistern's run dry and it ain't rained since late July And all I know, I have learned in my short time on this earth Yes, for all that came before that was forgotten at my birth As the walls cave in around me and the chorus starts to sing I get a sinking feeling I may forget it all again and As the walls cave in around me and the chorus starts its verse I'm confronted by the fact that one day we all return to dirt I hope the gods don't hold a grudge for the wicked things that I've done For the bodies at the bottom of the slough Oh I know that you were being polite when you told me that one day I'd get it right But I don't know what it is you think I'll do Bout them bodies at the bottom of the slough Here we go, once again into darkness I was scared for my friends and now I'm scared for all of us You say I'll pay the price for the way I've lived my life I thank the gods that they didn't leave judgement up to you I thank the gods that they didn't leave judgement up to you Here we go Here we go
