doin' the cockroach (live 2004) - modest mouse lyrics

[instrumental intro]

[verse 1]
i was in heaven
i was in h-ll
believe in neither
but fear them as well
this one’s a doctor
this one’s a lawyer
this one’s a cash thief
taking your money
back in the metro
ride on a greyhound
drunk on the amtrack
please shut up!
another rider
he was a talker
talking about tv
please shut up!
this one’s a crazer
daydreaming disaster
the origin of junk food
rutting through garbage
tasty but worthless
dogs eat their own sh-t
we’re doing the c-ckroach, yeah

[chorus]
doin’ the c-ckroach, yeah
doin’ the c-ckroach, yeah
yeah
all right, not bad

doin’ the c-ckroach, yeah
doin’ the c-ckroach, yeah
yeah
all right, not bad
not bad, no

[verse 2]
one year
twenty years
forty years
fifty years
down the road in your life
you’ll look in the mirror and say
“my parents are still alive!”

[verse 3]
you move your mouth
you shake your tongue
you vibrate my eardrums
you’re saying words
but you know i ain’t listening

[verse 4]
you’re walking down the street
your face
your lips
your hips
your eyes
they meet
you’re not hungry though

[bridge]
well, late last winter
down below the equator
they had a summer that would make you blister
oh, my mind is all made up
so i’ll have to sleep in it

[outro]
oh, my mind is all
oh, my mind is all
oh, my mind is all made up
so i’ll have to sleep in it
