Lyrics for Satin in a Coffin by Modest Mouse
Songwriters: Gallucci, Dann; Judy, Eric; Brock, Isaac; Peloso, Thomas P
You said, "Do you believe what you're sayin'?"
Since the world is our coffin
Are you dead or are you sleepin'?
Well now the blow's been softened
Are you dead or are you sleepin'?
Like you're satin in a coffin
Are you dead or are you sleepin'?
Well everybody's talkin' about their short lists
Are you dead or are you sleepin'?
Are you here right now
And you know the blow's been softened
You said, "Do you believe what you're sayin'?"
Are you dead or are you sleepin'?
God I sure hope you are dead
Are you dead or are you sleepin'?
Are you dead or are you sleepin'?
You were laying on the carpet
Well now the blow's been softened
Are you dead or are you sleepin'?
Since we are our own damn coffins
Since the ocean is our coffin
Since the air we breathe's our coffin
Often times you know our laughter
Well you disappeared so often
Now the blow's been softened
And everybody's talkin' about death
Is your coffin ever after
God I sure hope you are dead
Like you dissolved into coffee
Or are there probably fossils under your meat?
Are you dead or are you sleepin'?
Yeah right now, but not that often
Yeah right now, but not that often
