the swirling eddies - giants in the land lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
there are dinosaurs stuck in the old tar pits
get the dinosaurs out of the old tar pits
they were kings like elvis, they got swiveling hips
who will buy ’em some guitars and some guitar picks?

[verse 2]
madmen sleeping by the river styx
wild men peeing in the river styx
they trust the suits as far as they can spit
who will book ’em a room at the motel 6?

[pre-chorus 1]
skeleton fingers on rusty strings
parchment plans and cardboard dreams
not even an asterisk in the history books
playing bad-ss l!cks while they lose their looks
they don’t have fortune and don’t have the fame
they cry, “dear god almighty, please remember my name!”

[chorus 1]
there were giants in the land in those ancient days
they were giants in the land, now they’re in their graves
indifferent k!lled them, and they buried the band
all they wanted was a tour and a rental van

[verse 3]
sun’s going down upon the sunset strip
an old pirate’s run aground out on the sunset strip
he’s got a boatload of songs, but never a hit
the sun’s going down, and so is the ship

[verse 4]
there’s someone drumming in the mummy’s crypt
someone’s drumming in the mummy’s crypt
he won’t get his act together ’til he’s really equipped
’cause it’s hard to play solo when you got one stick

[pre-chorus 2]
the chicken’s roosting, cow’s home in the barn
the farmer’s didn’t know it ’til he bought the farm
he’s outstanding in the field that did him in
he’s been growing what he’s sowing ’til he reaped the wind
we’re all of us farmers singing this refrain
“lord of the harvest, please remember my name!”

[chorus 1]
there were giants in the land in those ancient days
they were giants in the land, now they’re in their graves
indifferent k!lled them, and they buried the band
all they wanted was per diem and a chance to jam

[verse 1]
there are dinosaurs stuck in the old tar pits
get the dinosaurs out of the old tar pits
they were kings like elvis, they got swiveling hips
gotta buy ’em some guitars and some guitar picks

[outro]
in those ancient days, there were giants in the land
you wanna raise ’em up, you gotta give ’em a hand
in those ancient days, there were giants in the land
