Текст песни "Fulcrum And Lever" |
I heard a bone snap
When I was only 'bout 9
The laws of gravitation
Were in advance a while(??)
But not long before they taught me a lesson
In tough skin jeans like a Japanese Hessian
I was 70 pounds
Learning to fly
I knew I couldn't do if I didn't try
We called it 'the field'
Where we used to hang out
A field of alfalfa in the back of a house
With a slice of an old oak tree
And a 12 foot plank
Put the board on top
We got a flying machine!
Oh my god! We can teeter on this!
Or make a lever that can shoot me
Into orbit and space!
I've seen the circus
I know how they do it
With bent knees
You got to jump
Like you would from a trampoline
Strange Phenomenon
Strange Phenomenon
We got up a ladder
And the heaviest kid (5)
He would climb up top (4)
And count down like a (3)rocket ship
To (2) fly me up
He'd get to (1) T-minus zero
(0)Before he jumped
And I was shot high in a vertical catapult
Straight up and down
I remember the view
From over top of the house
Gravity seems weak
Until you look down
I got in position
I hadn't echoed the form (???)
If the judges were present
They'd be holding up score cards
Of 9's and 10's
I must've loosed a couple points
For the landing I did
I heard a loud snap
But it didn't hurt
I looked the neighborhood
It looked like earth
But everybody's acting weird
Are they on meds?
Eating peanut butter sandwich
In a hospital bed
I started noticing
Strange Phenomenon
(I started noticing)
Strange Phenomenon
Is this planet the same one that I've been on
Everybody's bizzare and irrational
Even nurses on the quiet(?) seem a bit off
Strange Phenomenon
Everybody's deranged and I wonder what
Happened the day that I fell from the sky
If nobody changed then it must've been mine
