The Breeders
Metal Man
[Verse 1: Josephine Wiggs]
I don't know how old I was
But it was a '65 pickup
I was lying on the ground
With flat iron bars over my head

[Chorus: Josephine Wiggs & Kim Deal]
One silver drop is all you need
To put a hole in your head at two thousand degrees
That's right man, you be the Metal Man
At two thousand degrees

[Post-Chorus: Josephine Wiggs]
And that's hot
That's hot

[Acoustic guitar break]

[Verse 2]
And over my head, the hot wire was sparking
I got something down on my chest
And it began to bubble

[Chorus: Josephine Wiggs and Kim Deal]
I was repairing my three on a tree
When a drip dropped down on me
That's right man, I'm the Metal Man
At two thousand degrees
[Post-Chorus: Josephine Wiggs]
And that's hot
That's hot

(In the background there is a conversation between a man
And a woman. What they are saying is anyone's guess!)
