"Rolling Off A Log" lyrics
"Rolling Off A Log"
Do you remember how it used to be?
They always say
You mean those days when everybody laughed?
Well, how did they ever, ever slip away?
Just like rolling of a log
As we say goodbye to God
Yeah, the animal still feels odd
Asleep inside
Well, how it was, was how it had to be
At the end of every day
So perfect in its sense of duty
Well how did it ever, ever slip away?
Just like rolling off a log
The scientist thinks it's odd
That the animal says it's God
Asleep inside
So many fought the wars
And what was that all for?
They said, "Between good and evil?"
Well, I think they lied a little
We live in a prison, somewhat of our own design
Grab the key, unlock the door
Then you'll know what life is for
Stop rolling off a log
Yeah, the scientist says it's odd
And the animal still seems odd
Asleep inside
After such a long parade of history
So many seeing eyes
I wonder how life could do this thing to me?
How could I ever, ever lose my mind?
Just like rolling off a log
And the animal still seems odd
Asleep inside
Inside
Asleep inside
Asleep inside
It sleeps inside
It sleeps inside

Neil Finn - "Faster Than Light" Close your eyes
Go to sleep
Close your eyes
Get so dizzy
The world is spinning
In your bed
I know where the sun goes
It's waking up the sparrows
In England it's morning
In time, you'll see that some...
Bryan Ferry - "Knockin' On Heaven's Door" Mama, take this badge off of me
I can't use it anymore.
It's gettin' dark, too dark to see
I feel like I'm knockin' on heaven's door.
Knock, knock, knockin' on heaven's door
Knock, knock, knockin'...
Robbie Robertson - "Unbound" With eyes of fire
No one can see
The smoke from the sweet grass
Covers me
I am drawn
I am drawn to her
Like a moth to flame
She leads me down
Unbound
I am lost
I am lost
Has anybody seen me
I am...
Crowded House - "Fall At Your Feet" I'm really close tonight
And I feel like I'm moving inside her
Lying in the dark
I think that I'm beginning to know her
Let it go
I'll be there when you call
And whenever I fall at your feet
Won't...
Lloyd Cole - "Writers Retreat!" When you get back from the writers retreat
I won't be waiting
When you head out to the shack in the woods
I won't be there
I won't be lying beside your pool
I won't be watching the days turn blue...
