Lyrics Modest Mouse

Modest Mouse

Here It Comes

Walk to your house on my lunch break

Here it comes

Come inside and pour a drink

You'll probably tell me everything you think

Here it comes

The place and the time that we knew

that things could go wrong

The grass grows green

could you step away from the screen

it doesn't mean

I don't want you to be seen

just not like everyone.

Grass grows green and it's just everyone.

You always told me life's a dam that breaks, well

Here it comes

If you sit still or if you run

Here it comes.

So now we're drownin' in birthday cakes

Here it comes

The place and the time that we knew that things could go wrong

Keep it clean.

I didn't mean to be mean.

Why does it always seem

Like I've never won.

Keep it clean and no one's ever won.

The empty promise makers said

Here it comes

Make a point to make no sense, well

Here it comes

Speak about the future in the past tense

Here it comes

Don't look down.

So what'd we do?

Here it comes

Walkin' around with shit on our shoes

Oh, here it comes

The place and the time that we knew things would go wrong.
