Bury Me with It - Modest Mouse

We were shootin at a mound of dirt
Nothing was broken nothing was hurt
But i probably really should have been at work
With my free time gone would you promise me this that you'll

Please bury me with it
Please bury me with it

If your plans come and i know that there in
And if im here when it happens just promise me this

Please bury me with it
Please bury me with it

Well the two go caught and split at the seems
I kept it out of habit and kept it real clean
But if it ends up getting faded and runs out of thread
Would you promise me this my friend

Please bury me with it
Please bury me with it

Well we move to the left and we move to the right
And sure as hell stayed out almost every single night
But if the partys over and the fun has to end
Would you do this for me my friend

Please bury me with it
Please bury me with it

We are hummingbirds how like to fly
And we will not move
And thats good news for anyone
Who loves bad news

We were aiming for the moon we were shooting at the stars
But the kids were just shooting at the buses and cars
Dont drink that water dont breathe the air
And if youve done the poison i have declaird

Please bury me with it
Please bury me with it

Well fancy come and fancy go
And god i love that rock and roll
Well the cut was fast but it was to blunt to miss
I have the paycheck

Please bury me with it
Please bury me with it

We are hummingbirds who like to fly
And we will not live
And thats good news to anyone who loves bad news
