MODEST MOUSE LYRICS - Spitting Venom

"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 ain't got

So let it drop



Let it all drop

Let is 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 just where to go

Well let it drop



Let it drop

Let it all drop

Oh let it all fall off



My ears were pressed so 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

Both looking one direction and waiting for a train of thought over

Thought over



I didn't know you kept track I didn't know there was a score

Well it looks like your the winner and I ain't gonna play no more

It's over

Game over



Well we walked real stiff and our canes hit the ground

You hit me with yours

And said, "You're gonna stare me down"

It's 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, sorry

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 drop

Oh let it all fall off



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

Bit of venom that came out, the antidote was had

[X7]



Cheer up



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

Bit of venom that came out, the antidote was had

[X6]
