Pleasure And Pain And Pride And Me Lyrics - Crimes - These United States

Pleasure and pain and pride and me 

Racing to the top of the apple tree 

Each one with plans only he can see 

I'm gonna throw 'em off if they dont throw me 

Pleasure and pain and pride and me 

Sailing with the sharks to the middle of the sea 

Each wave the mirror, each crest the key 

I'm gonna turn 'em under if they dont turn me 

Everybody say don't trust that snake 

See, everybody got a deal to make me 

Ev'ryb'dy standin' on the corner for the bus 

The best losing time the worst losin' love 

Ev'ryb'dy grabs every thing that they covet 

Acting out loud like their minds were above it 

Ev'rybody covers the earth like a blanket 

Extending arms to the tree trunk to shake it 

Pleasure and pain and pride and me 

Sooner or later I bought a TV 

Each got a channel only he can see 

I'm gonna change 'em up if they dont change me 

Everybody say dont trust that honey bee 

Everybody buzzin' with a bargain to plead me 

Everybody elbows on the corner for the bus 

Their best losing time at their worst losing love 

Everybody steals a quick sight that they covet 

Glancing off though, as their minds drift above it 

Everybody shakes off the earth like a blanket 

Edging the long limbs to branch ends to make it 

Pleasure and pain and pride and me 

Shooting our mouths at thier falling leaves 

We're gonna make war or we're gonna make peace 

And I'm gonna lead the charge if they dont lead me
