lyrics

Fire on out the gate now
Run into my neighbor’s yard
Fire on out the gate now
Run into my neighbor’s yard
The getting there is easy it’s the staying part that’s hard
Traveling down the tight-wire
Just as fast as I can go
Traveling down the tight-wire
Just as fast as I can go
Vultures circling overhead men are scavenging below
I think the world of mother earth
And she thinks the world of me
I think the world of mother earth
And she thinks the world of me
But about my dirty habits we just agree to disagree
Who will follow who
The day the bottom all falls out
Who will follow who
The day the bottom all falls out
Those things you thought that mattered ain’t gonna matter anyhow
It’s best to take a grip
Before you fall
Just as fast as you can go
It don't matter at all
Those things you thought that mattered
Don’t matter anymore
