8. Weight of the World (4:07)
You feel the weight of the world and your back's are not that strong!
Can you carry a tune or is the weighting forever so long?!
Do ya freeze in the heat? Wear sunglasses at night?
And are you beating my meat to the sound of the same old drum!?
It's time to shed your skin and with it promises
And we bite down hard and feel... the weight of the world
Yeah, there's a song in them words, though they leak through your teeth!
You're shakin' hands with the right while your cutting my throat with the left
Yeah, it's the weight of the world when ya lay down with dogs!
After humpin' your leg they just leave you with flees and just split!
It's time to shed your skin and with it promises
And we bite down hard and feel-
The more I know, the less I understand
Try not to think out loud
The more I know, more I know, more I know
More I feel... the weight of the world!
It's the weight of the world when ya lay down with dogs!
All the names have been changed but the story is always the same!
It's time to shed your skin and with it promises
And we bite down hard and feel-
The more I know, the less I understand
Try not to think out loud
The more I know, more I know, more I know
More I feel... the weight of the world!
Can you carry a tune or is the weighting forever so long?!
Do ya freeze in the heat? Wear sunglasses at night?
And are you beating my meat to the sound of the same old drum!?
It's time to shed your skin and with it promises
And we bite down hard and feel... the weight of the world
Yeah, there's a song in them words, though they leak through your teeth!
You're shakin' hands with the right while your cutting my throat with the left
Yeah, it's the weight of the world when ya lay down with dogs!
After humpin' your leg they just leave you with flees and just split!
It's time to shed your skin and with it promises
And we bite down hard and feel-
The more I know, the less I understand
Try not to think out loud
The more I know, more I know, more I know
More I feel... the weight of the world!
It's the weight of the world when ya lay down with dogs!
All the names have been changed but the story is always the same!
It's time to shed your skin and with it promises
And we bite down hard and feel-
The more I know, the less I understand
Try not to think out loud
The more I know, more I know, more I know
More I feel... the weight of the world!
