Rolling Away - Lyrics by Bern Dan


Lyrics
Your hand is between my legs
The dog is between our bodiesas I wake up
You are rollin' from me
I am rollin' from you
Time to join a new religion
Time to overthrow the state
Time to demand all my beliefs are in a new constitution
I can't stop you from cryin'but sometimes, I can lick away your tears
If you look in someone's eyesmore than two seconds nowyou better be prepared to fight
I got too much fear
And too much neglect of magical things
I am rollin' from you/you are rollin' from me
We are rollin' away
I caught a cold and for two days straightmy ears have been plugged upas if my body's saying'you don't need your earsyou don't listen anywayswe need more nose jobswe need more hair relaxersmore magazine's tellin usthere's something wrong with your facethere's something wrong with your facethere's something wring with your face
I am rollin' from you/you are rollin' from me
We are rollin' awaysome wild creature has taken command
I gave him the keys and now he's stompin' thruthe househe has a very busy itineraryand he does not have time for you
I wish I could give you everythingall of me just like beforethis last time togetherwe did everything 'cept fightaw we used to fight so good
I am rollin' from you/you are rollin' from me
We are rollin' away
I see beautiful actresses with terrible scriptsand I want to write 'em all a great oneoh don't worry baby
I'll write you one too
But I'll also write one for Andie Mc
Dowell
I'd love to trade places with a dog for a day
To know what he thinks and what he feels
Does he think about life
Does he think about God
Or just about his next meal like us?
So often these days
Eating Indian foodpasses for spirituality
I don't meditate
I don't pray
But I eat two somosas every daygo down Mosesgo down on me
I do not have the strength to fight
I only pray you treat me gentlythese are long, cold nights
You are rollin' from me
I am rollin' from you
We are rollin' away
I cry every daybut beauty shows up where you least expect to find it
You are rollin' from me
I am rollin' from you
We are rollin' away
You are rollin' from me
I am rollin' from you
We are rollin' away
