Lyrics Modest Mouse

Modest Mouse

I Came as a Rat (Long Walk off a Short Dock)

Well I ain't sure but I been told

He's baking cakes inside our souls stayed awake took a nap got myself my

bottles back

I'm breaking them out in the street

Walkin' 'round in my bare feet

I do not need you to tell me that I am not a cat

I cause a ride we caught some air

He's never gonna cut his hair

It takes more time to make a fake we night swam down in the lake washed the

dirt off our intentions prattle on 'bout bad inventions

I came as ice

I came as a whore

I came as advice that came too short

I came as gold

I came as crap

I came clean and I came as a rat

It takes a long time but God dies too

But not before he'll stick it to you

Well I ain't sure but I been told

You never die and you never grow old

I came as call

I came as flat

I came too soon so I came back

I came as flowers

I came as nice

I came as dirt and I came as it's price

It takes a long time but God dies too

But not before he'll stick it to you

I don't know but I been told you never die and you never grow old
