There′s a woman hater with a broken record player And a dusty compass off to map the country′s new behavior Strange words and we all roll back into the river Brave boys in the empty coats of men
There′s a kitchen timer, distractions and reminders Rolly-pollies slowly crawling ′cross your family china Strange words and we all roll back into the river And dead dogs only want to live again
There′s a serpent charmer, pair of shoes and wander Speeding ticket you got leading that last lamb to slaughter Strange words and we all roll back into the river Good girls come and kick you in the shin
There′s a hopeful hunter with a helpless sense of wonder And a million claw marks on the rock he hid his money under Strange words and we all roll back into the river And made men only want to live again
