The Mountain Goats
What's this song about?
Generate meaning
1
In the twinkling of an eye, my sentence gets passed
2
And I drop to the ground and I go slithering through the grass
3
Carving out battle lines as I crawl
4
Find a hollow branch to rest in, slip inside
5
Wait for mice to poke their heads in, jaw hinged open wide
6
Hang by my tail, listening for the call
7
Cos someday, someday the call will sound
8
We all, we all are gonna get up from the ground
9
Feel the wet leaves pressed against me, cling like drowning men
10
Try to hoist myself up right, try again,
11
Hold on to the memories all night
12
And where my legs and arms once sprouted, skin is smooth and slick
13
Rub the smooth spots on some rough rocks, I feel cold and sick
14
Hold on to the battle plan, hold tight
15
Cos someday, someday, the call will sound
16
We all, we all are gonna get up from the ground.
the mountain goats - no children
