Built to Spill - Randy Described Eternity lyrics

every thousand years

this metal sphere

ten times the size of Jupiter

floats just a few yards past the earth

you climb on your roof

and take a swipe at it

with a single feather

hit it once every thousand years

`til you've worn it down

to the size of a pea

yeah I'd say that's a long time

but it's only half a blink

in the place you're gonna be

where you gonna be

where will you spend eternity

I'm gonna be perfect from now on

I'm gonna be perfect starting now

stop making that sound

stop making that sound

I will say I forgot it

but it was only yesterday

and it's all you had to say
