Lyrics Modest Mouse

Modest Mouse

March Into the Sea

If food needed pleasing, you'd suck all the seasoning off, suck it off

Well, treat me like disease like the rats and the fleas

Ah, ha, ha, ah, ha, ha

Bang your head like a gong 'cause it's filled with all wrong

Ah, ha, ha, klang, klang, klang

If you think you know enough to know you know we've had enough

And if you think you don't you probably will

Our tails swagged and then fell off

But we just turned back marched into the sea

Well, treat me like the sea oh, so salty and mean

Ah, ha, ha, oh, ha, ha

Well, treat me like the disease like the rats and the fleas

Ah, ha, ha, ha

I'll be beating my heart's record for speeding

I'll be beating the record for hearts skipping in the dark

Our tails wagged and then fell off

But we just turned back marched into the sea

Well, we just turned around and marched into the sea

Take all that you need like my sign says for free till it's gone, till it's gone

Well, discard whom you please like the leaves off a tree

Ah, ha, ha, ah, ha, ha

Let's shake hands if you want but your both hands are gone

Ah, ha, ha, ha, ha

Treat me like the sea oh, so salty and mean

Ah, ha, ha

Oh, treat me like the sea oh, so salty and mean

Ah, ha, ha

Well, treat me like the disease like the rats and the fleas

Bang your head like a gong 'cause you call it all wrong

Move your tongue klang, klang

Klang, klang, klang, klang, klang, klang

Cut me down like a tree like the lumber or weeds

Drag me out of the sea and then teach me to breathe

Give me forced health till I wish death on myself

Give me forced health till I wish death on myself

Ah, ha, ha, ah, ha, ah, ha, ah, ha, ah, ha

Well, we all stumbled round

Tangled up in our cords

From our phones, VCR and our worldly woes

March on, march on, march on, march on

Well, march on
