Modest Mouse - Spitting Venom

 ★ 



We were spitting venom at most everyone we know

If the damned gave us a road map

then we'd know just were to go

Now let it drop



Let it all drop

Let it all drop

Oh let it all fall off



Well you were talking soda pop

You were talking quite a lot

The opinions that I do not give

The opinions I aint got

So let it drop



Let it all drop

Let it all drop

Let it all fall off there oh



Well you were spitting venom

at most everyone you know

If you truly knew the gravity

you'd know which way to go

Well let it drop



Let it all drop

Let it all drop

Oh let it all fall off



My ears were bristled firmly right

against your mouth to hear

When you tried to spit the venom out

your words were not so clear

Now drop



Hold on to what you need

We've got a knack for fucked up history

Hold on to what you need

We've got a knack for messed up history



Well we went downtown and we sat in the rain

Well looking what direction

and waiting for a train and thought over

Its all over



I don't know you kept track

I didn't know there was a score

But it looks like your the winner

and I aint gonna play no more

Its over

Game over



Well we walked real stiff

and I came inside the ground

You hit me with yours

And said 'pull yourself together'

Its over

Oh it's over



You can say what you want but don't act like you care

It takes more than one person to decide whats fair

Its over

Think it over



You were spitting venom at most everyone you know

If the damned gave you a road map

then you'd know just where to go

So we carried all the groceries

in while hauling out the trash

And if this doesn't make us motionless

I do not know what can

What a rotten thing to say such an awful thing to say

I didn't mean to bite you so really

What I always did what I always did

what I always had to sling

So let it drop



Let it all drop

Let it all drop

Oh let it all fall off



Let it drop

Let it all drop

Let it all drop

Oh let it all fall off



Cheer up baby it always wasn't quite so bad for every

Venom then that came out the antidote was had





Cheer up



Cheer up baby it always wasn't quite so bad for every

Venom then that came out the antidote was had
