Toadies - Dig A Hole lyrics

In a shady place I dig a hole

To sow the seeds of this brave soul.

I strain my back,

while mother earth

commenced the pain of giving birth.

Like perverts words

I'm strung together.

To make some pervert god feel better

My hopes and my sins,

cannot erase this

SHOCK!

SHOCK ME!

If I get home I'll kiss the ground,

and curse the hopes that held me down.

If I get home I'll tend the fields

Caress the earth beneath my heals.

SHOCK!

SHOCK ME!

In a shady place I dig a hole.

To sow the seeds of this brave soul.

Beneath the tree it's old as sin

I return to work again

I turn the stones

from earth's embrace

With the sweat and tears upon my face

My hopes and my sins

or the many years

SHOCK!

SHOCK ME!

shock.
