Modest Mouse 3rd Planet Lyrics

Everything that keeps me together is falling apart
I've got this thing that I consider my only art
of f___ing people over.

My boss just quit the job
says he's goin' out to find blind
spots and he'll do it.

The 3rd planet is sure that they're being watched
by an eye in the sky that can't be stopped.
When you get to the promise land
you're gonna shake that eye's hand.

Your heart
felt good
it was drippin pitch and made of wood.
And your hands
and knees
felt cold and wet on the grass beneath.

Outside naked, shiverin', looking blue,
from the cold sunlight
that's reflected off the moon.
Baby come angels
fly around you
reminding you we used
to be three and not two.
And thats how the world began.
And thats how the world will end.

A third had just been made
and we were swimming in the water,
didn't know then
Was it a son?
Was it a daughter?
When it occurred to me
that the animals are swimming
around in the water
in the oceans
in our bodies and
another had been found,
another ocean on the planet,
given that our blood is just like the Atlantic.
And how.

Well, the universe is shaped
exactly like the earth if you go straight long enough
you'll end up where you were.

And, the universe is shaped
exactly like the earth if you go straight long enough
you'll end up where you were.

And, the universe is shaped
exactly like the earth.

Your heart
felt good
it was drippin' pitch and made of wood.
And your hands
and knees
felt cold and wet on the grass beneath.

Outside naked, shiverin', looking blue,
from the cold sunlight
that's reflected off the moon.
Baby come angels
fly around you
reminding you we used
to be three and not two.
And thats how the world began.
And thats how the world will end.

A third had just been made
and we were swimming in the water,
didn't know then
Was it a son?
Was it a daughter?
When it occurred to me
that the animals are swimming
around in the water
in the oceans
in our bodies and
another had been found,
another ocean on the planet,
given that our blood is just like the Atlantic.
And how.

Well, the universe is shaped
exactly like the earth if you go straight long enough
you'll end up where you were.

And, the universe is shaped
exactly like the earth if you go straight long enough
you'll end up where you were.

And, the universe is shaped
exactly like the earth.

Everything that keeps me together is falling apart
I've got this thing that I consider my only art
of f___ing people over.
