the killers – pressure machine lyrics
[intro]
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—
[verse 1]
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 ’til the last drop
[chorus]
why don’t you say little things?
b+tterflies 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 outro]
