Wood for the mill piled up on the hill

They laugh, but they don't understand

They're out there still on the hill

Buy the big man a beer

Chuck, pick up the check

Sat near the back with my head on backwards

What am I doing here?

My ears work but I'm still not listening

Root from the ground growing up through my feet

Boy meets a girl, goes home, beats his meat

They're outside still

Five miles long, outside on the lawn

Damn, my friend, where have you been?

Been away

Wood for the mill piled up on the hill

They laugh, but they don't understand

They're out there still, man

They don't want to go home

Hang me by my toes

From the tree by the side of the road

Make me pay for the bus, man

I don't want to go home

Buy the big man a beer

Chuck, pick up the check

Sat near the back with my head on backwards

What am I doing here?

My ears work but I'm still not listening

Root from the ground growing up through my feet

Boy meets a girl, goes home, beats his meat

They're outside still

Five miles long, outside on the lawn

Damn, my friend
