We met dragging Main at Spanish Fork.
And he wasn't moving away from here, so it wasn't really—
And we could build a house here. But—
Hope'll set your eyes agleam
We met dragging Main at Spanish Fork.
And he wasn't moving away from here, so it wasn't really—
And we could build a house here. But—
Hope'll set your eyes agleam
Like four feet dangling in the stream
But the Kingdom of God, it's a pressure machine
Every step, gotta keep it clean
A mattress on a hardwood floor
Who could ever ask for more?
I'll get up and cut the grass
Ain't nothing wrong with working class
[Chorus]
I, I don't remember the last time you asked how I was
Don't you feel the time slipping away?
It ain't funny at all
It's gonna break your heart one day
[Verse 2]
Keep the debt cloud off the kids
Only sunshine on their lids
Jiminy Cricket and Power Wheels
And memories of Happy Meals
Sometimes I look at the stars
And think about how small we are
Sweating it out in the pressure machine
Good till the last drop
[Chorus]
Why don't you say little things?
Butterflies don't just dance on a string
It feels like you clipped all their wings
And every year goes by faster than the one before
[Verse 3]
We've had that treadmill now for months
I think she might've used it once
If I shut my mouth and keep the peace
She'll cook my eggs in bacon grease
Life'll grow you a big red rose
Then rip it from beneath your nose
Run it through the pressure machine
And spit you out a name tag memory
[Instrumental]
Stretli sme sa sťahovacím hlavným pri španielskej vidlice.
A nebol odtiaľto ďaleko, takže to nebolo
A mohli by sme tu postaviť dom. Ale-
Dúfam, že vaše oči agleam
Ako štyri stopy visiace v potoku
Ale kráľovstvo Božie, je to tlakový stroj
Každý krok, musí to udržať čistý
Matrac na podlahe z tvrdého dreva
Kto by mohol niekedy žiadať viac?
Vstanem a odrežím trávu
Nie je nič zlého na pracovnej triede
[Chorus]
Ja si nepamätám, že naposledy ste sa spýtali, ako som bol
Necítite, že sa čas pošmyknutý?
Nie je to vôbec zábavné
Jeden deň zlomí vaše srdce
[Verš 2]
Udržujte dlh vzplanúť z detí
Len slnečnice na ich viečka
Jiminy kriketové a energetické kolesá
A spomienky na šťastné jedlá
Niekedy sa pozerám na hviezdy
A premýšľať o tom, ako malé sme
Potením v tlakovom stroji
Dobré až do poslednej kvapky
[Chorus]
Prečo nehovoríte malé veci?
Motýle netancujú na reťazec
Cítim sa, že ste orezali všetky svoje krídla
A každý rok ide rýchlejšie ako ten
[Verš 3]
Mali sme ten bežecký pás celé mesiace
Myslím, že by to mohla použiť raz
Ak som zavrel ústa a udržať pokoj
Varíme moje vajcia v slanine
Život vám rastie veľká červená ruža
Potom ho roztrhnite od nosa
Spustite ho cez tlakový stroj
A pľučajte vám pamäť menu
[Inštrumentálne]
