Asbestos Theme 04:29

Asbestos For this is a remarkable mineral Tiny but extremely strong and flexible Asbestos Testing and experiment Asbestos will not burn Asbestos Actually stone Safer and more durable Colors it not only attractive Fireproof, too This same kind of scientific thinking was applied to The problem of the homes of America Rigid specifications must be attractive Easy to handle And rot-proof Furthermore and above all Expense Asbestos Combined with Portland Cement Asbestos Fireproof, too Asbestos A natural choice Testing and experiment And water couldn't harm it Strong and tough It was given every conceivable test However it can be tainted For even a torch couldn't burn it This material won't rot or decay Asbestos And to the great success of asbestos Laboratory tests are only half of the story The actual use of this material on homes over the years Is the final convincing proof Asbestos Still attractive Strong and sturdy as the day it was made In fact it is actually denser and harder Asbestos Testing and experiment Being stone, it was natural that The scientists would turn to asbestos

Yeah, try me I’m the one I’ve been listening along I can play I was old once You aren’t getting any older I was young once You aren’t getting any younger either Are you? Yeah, Tammy went canning She had a tin throat as well It’s just as well I’m on the lam But I can’t tell Yeah, I wanted to be something Oh So I played And I played And I sang And I didn’t sing

Crack a beer for me Yeah It's been a long day Oh I was driving in my car And it started to rain And the winos on the bench across the street Outside my door I can see them From my window I'll just stay here and drink Whoa Chug it down Pour it down One More I was cramped inside my apartment I was low I was low I thought why not have another Just one more Can't see me Can't hear me Don't pick up the phone Ow I lay here with my beer Singing I can't sing without my drink pour another one pour another one I'll take one Fuck, I'll take two I'm done with the first one already Heaven help me I need a whoa I need a surprise No don't surprise me Don't tell me what to do Never see me writhing See me now Don't you wish you were here?

Heat! 02:22
lyrics

Heat! Heat! I was living down on the edge of town I was crying in my bedroom I couldn't stand the sight of a man that couldn't raise his hand Heat! Heat! I couldn't even apologize to anyone I loved I was aching I was bursting out my ears I couldn't even lift my own weight I couldn't stand I was in heat I couldn't even understand anything I was a bobbling around Swinging around on the snow-drifted hill Heat! I was trapped I was excited Heat! I was Whoa! Yeah but I definitely came back And they came back looking for me I was smelling like We couldn't say anything You guys are mouths with novocaine yeah Eat his heart Swing Something Love Slow down now Eat I've been rambling all over my sweet map I was trying so hard Heat

Sing to Get it Out 01:23
lyrics

Something we couldn't fathom And now we gotta deal with that Every time we talk A weight hovering over us Something dying in between us Like a spleen in between us And that was real Something that had to swing around And swing And he had to sing to get it out Quit bottling up the things man You gotta swing for it man You gotta start You gotta swing man You gotta take up Build it in the middle of the woods Camp out man Get some real solitude That’ll help you out Get some help you out Help you out Help you out Swing Come on Build a tent Swing Build a porch Swing Build a fire

Come on back Come on back, my brother I knew we were close once, but I couldn’t tell you from him I couldn’t even tell that you were apart Been singing down We been swinging around And we played all hits Swinging and swigging Sing, sing, brother, sing brother Yeah I came back I’ve always been leaving I’ve always been coming back I've always been swinging, I've always singing One way or another I’ve been cramping around Cramping everyone’s style Sing with me now Sing with me brother You’ve always been attached to out mother You've been cramped in that tight space Rolling around yeah Cramped, Cramps Samson and Delilah You know you know And when I get home, I’m gonna pick you up And take you down the block I’m gonna show you a thing or two I’m gonna take you down to where the sewer meets the river I’m gonna take you and plunge your head in It’ll be like a baptism Ooh, it’ll be like a baptism A sincere point of view Once we dig through all of it Whoa Yeah Yeah, sing Yeah, sing Sing

I was a sorcerer I couldn’t find my staff I was sore Sorting my stones Under the waterfall I couldn’t find myself there I couldn’t read the signs I couldn’t see anything beneath the sun Gimme one, gimme two, gimme three, gimme four, gimme Five Yeah It was so hot I couldn’t see myself in the water I just had to go in Anon, it was deeper than I expected I couldn’t swim I knew it I went in anyway No way That’s not the way to go I lost somebody down there I lost myself, man I couldn’t see anything under the water It was murky There were starfish There were stones There was sea coral There were sea squids There was octopi I was dead blonde I didn’t know what that meant though I hadn’t fallen that far I hadn’t gone that deep So I kept swimming Oh, sing me a song Sing it underwater, would you? Just give it a try Gimme once Gimme twice Gimme three times Four You know, you leave me So no wedding, baby Something is a sometime And sometimes it’s still cold in the water Yeah Yeah Yeah Eh two three four five six And it started getting dark out It started getting even darker under the water As you can imagine It was even worse than before, as far as visibility But that That’s to be expected Gimme one time now Gimme two times Three four five One two three And you can only swim so long You start floating Just start floating Try it Gimme one, gimme two, gimme three, gimme four, gimme five, gimme six I Yeah The lights were flashing man, They came to find me I should have know it would happen I couldn’t go that far Who knew Who knows Who knows Gimme one time now This one's for the mermaids This one's for sea shells This one's for the waves This one's for the tides Three fish in a row School of fish standing there standing there Up, nope, they got legs

I couldn’t stand Mumps He was old once He was in magazines He couldn't salute He couldn’t even look at me He was a team player But he married his form And he married the sky He was asleep Living in and out Living it over He went too soon Little song carried him home Yea Now Whoa I came back afterward I was grinning with his ears shattered He had his brains scattered all across the floor Yeah, what did he say? He still wanted more Whoa Tell me about it Whoa But we were gone (And nearly it was all lost) I was singing Ellie this song and he was loving on it We can’t save him now, we tried From now on Things are keep or going to happening again anyway One time for Tommy, the dj The one we all wanted to stay And one time for singer He’s equipped with a fourteen-carat ring And man that guy can sing Goddamn Whoa It’s cold in here Oh Brought back at the place And he was leaping across buildings The lights were flashing It was all over I couldn’t’ believe what they did to him I couldn’t even see But I was there It makes me nauseous thinking about it Dude, I still got nightmares from the thing
