Animals Above Our Town
[Audio Clip]
This is your chance to show the gang what you really are
Ring up the bishop
Call in the saints
The parking lot's hot and it's frying my brains
The spiders are spinning
Threads for the other world
Take me under the itkul and cut my hair
Cuz I can't take the weight of a pagan prayer
Oh, baby, if you don't like it there
Take me to the roof
We'll be just like animals above our town
Just like animals above our town
Just like animals above our town
Kicking around
Show me your finger
Point to a star
My compass ain't great but I know where we are
Down in the gutter
Beauty's an attitude
Take me into the mountains of copper ore
'Cuz I can't think of anything to stay here for
Ah baby if that's a bore
Take me to the roof
We'll be just like animals above our town
Just like animals above our town
Just like animals above our town
Kicking around
Here in the swing of the piggy parade
All that we've got is whatever we've made
And somebody is howling from up on the church spire
Take me down to the quicksand and suck me in
'Cuz I don't wanna see the white hot trouble begin
You know what? Forget it, baby
Take me to the roof
We'll be just like animals above our town
Just like animals above our town
Just like animals above our town
Kicking around, baby
