the size queens - spinning world lyrics
i can’t keep anybody safe
i can’t even keep anyone around
i can’t keep anyone alive
or keep the old ones from suicide
can’t keep anyone from a terrorist attack
lord knows i can’t bring anyone back
can’t keep anyone for a thousand years
even if i could they wouldn’t be pharaohs but slaves
and why would you want to keep a slave around
for so many days?
i can’t keep someone from sending anthrax to the president
i can’t make the guantanamo prisoners free
i can’t keep people from k!lling one another
i can’t even keep my plant
sure i bought the plant for cheap
but i can’t keep it alive
can’t keep anyone around for a thousand years
can’t keep the mummies underground and
if i did they would not be pharaohs but slaves and
why would you want to keep a slave for that many days?
and i couldn’t even save my own daughter
i can’t keep people from sending envelopes with white powder
through the post office
they’re going to close them anyway
i can’t even save this plant i bought at the grocery store
and things must be going to h+ll
the plant i bought seems to hate the sun
but it shrinks up in my kitchen
doesn’t seem to like water
but it always feels too dry
i cannot save the plant
and i don’t know why
spinning world, spinning round
spinning lies all the way out
spinning lies like masking tape
makes you think you’re wrapped up and safe
but shipping out
you’re gonna break
it’s almost sure
you’re gonna break
when they ship you out
you’re gonna break
no matter how well wrapped up
with that masking tape
and i couldn’t save my daughter
and i cannot save my father
thought i admit i didn’t really try
i admit i didn’t really try
masking tape
put it on your mouth, put it on your wrists
throw it out
spinning world
get rid of it, get rid of it
spinning world
get rid of it
put masking tape
on its mouth and on its wrists
and just
then just take the world
throw it out
like it never had a name
and it never did exist
spinning world, spinning round
everything is upside down
put masking tape on its mouth
and around its wrists
then throw it out
like it never had a name
throw it out like it never did exist
spinning world
i admit i never really tried
admit i never really tried
i admit
