Lyrics The Mountain Goats

The Mountain Goats

Whole Wide World

The last of the repercussions died off real slow

And the sky was still

And the cold sun sank down beneath the snow

I hung by my hand from the tree outside

And I looked at the whole wide world.

When the voices came quietly.

I shut them down.

When a tricky young southerly wind

Came at me with it's high whistling sound.

I turned around to face it

With real arrogance burning inside.

And I drank in the whole wide world
