Lyrics The Thermals

The Thermals

An Ear for Baby

Pull out your dead roots

Pull out your best suit

It's time to inspect the subjects

Lose your intentions

Lose your common sense

It's time to groom you for judgement

Stick to a numb stare

Strip to your underwear

It's time for you to be cleansed

Keep your eye's straight

For Christ's sake

Remember we're your friends

Good luck getting over the fence

Good luck running even a dead end

The mission, the plan

Just breath you don't need to understand

Can you hear me? The siren's on

Let the water run, leave the light's on

An ear for baby if you need it

Can you hear me? I'll repeat it

Draw the bridges, dig the ditches steep

We're gonna need a new border

Get thyself in line, it's time for reassignment

Time for a new first world order

We got a job to do

We don't ask we tell you

Work is freedom, sloth is sin

So pull out your dead roots

Pull out your best suit

You know the one they're gonna bury you in

Good luck getting God on the phone

Good luck getting even a tone

You can trust me, it's not a test

And I won't leave you with this mess, any questions?

You in the back

Can you hear me? The siren's on

Let the water run, leave the light's on

An ear for baby if you need it

Can you hear me? I'll repeat it

Good luck getting over the fence

Good luck running even a dead end

The mission, the dream

The body, the blood the machine

Can you hear me? The siren's on

Let the water run, leave the light's on

An ear for baby if you need it

Can you hear me? I'll repeat it
