Lyrics for Dig Your Grave by Modest Mouse
Songwriters: Brock, Isaac
We have good news for anyone who loves bad news
But I kept it out of habit and I kept it really clean
We are hummingbirds who've lost the plot and we well not move
Good news for people who love bad news
Life handed us a paycheck, we said, "We worked harder than this!"
Would you just please bury me with it?
And God I love that rock and roll
Well fads they come and fads they go
If it's gotten to that point then I have to declare
Well the point was fast but it was too blunt to miss
We are hummingbirds who are just not going to move
But if the party's over, if the fun has to end
We are hummingbirds who've lost the plot and we will not move
Well we moved to the left and moved to the right
But the kids were just shooting at the busses and the cars
Please bury me with it
But I probably really should have been at work
Could you just do this for me my friend?
We've lost the plot and we just can't choose
Please bury me with it
But if my freetime's gone, would you promise me this?
We are hummingbirds who are just not willing to move
But if it's getting' faded, if it's runnin' outta thread
Could you do this for me my friend?
I just don't need none of that Mad Max bullshit
Well sure as planets come, I know that they end
And please just please bury me with it?
And if I'm here when that happens, will you promise me this my friend?
So don't drink the water, don't you breathe the air
We were aiming for the moon. We were shooting at the stars
And there's good news for people who love bad news
Please bury me with it
And sure as hell we stayed out almost every single night
That you will please bury me with it?
And there's good news for people who love bad news
Please bury me with it
Well the suit got tight and it split at the seams
That you please bury me with it
Please bury me with it
Please bury me with it
Please bury me with it
