Cage The Elephant

Shake me down, not a lot of people left around Who knows now? Softly laying on the ground, ooh Not a lot people left around, ooh, ooh In my life, I have

I've been trying real hard to realize But some things take a long, long Long, long time Long time Hold the phone, hit repeat Got me foaming at the knees

I was walkin' down the street, when out the corner of my eye I saw a pretty little thing approachin' me She said I've never seen a man Who looks so all

Early in the morning Rise to meet the sun Work so hard to feed your wife No time to show her love And in the madness of the evening With diamonds in

Poor guy that man John Thomas His woman truly was a devil And she wasn't all that honest She tore him down on every level You're a no good lazy motherfucker

Ran around the corner, fell asleep in the sun You had to move into the shade before you fire the gun We got a hunger for destruction, needed someone to

Woke before the mornin' sun I found it tucked beneath the hills I sat and watched it rise, it hit the sky and burst to flames The lotus flower's got me

Rolling around like a big rubber ball Writing this song 'bout some things that I saw Trying to stand like a big, strong, tough man Finding out fast that

Timber shakes these trails, they are derailed Phony, false and frail An empty ocean Lost our way with no direction home Golden needles, names we take
