lyrics

Well it will never be easy
But there’s pleasure in the pushing
When you’re not strong you can lean on me
Like I’m some sort of cushion
But don’t be getting over comfy
You’ll knock my stuffing flat
Don’t be getting to dependent
Because you’re better than that

I don’t want to have my hands gripped right round your spine
When the rock rolls back

If you give a little friction
I will sharpen my tools
Get to talking up commitment
I won’t play your fool
Come on over in the evening
We’ll pop a bottle of the best
Show me your heart
I will screw it out of your chest

I don’t want to have my hands gripped right round your spine
When the rock rolls back

When the rock rolls back
When the gold turns brown
When the pillars in the temple
Are falling all around
When loneliness comes up
As the day goes down
Don’t you look for me
I wont be around

A man has got to eat
I’m addicted to your taste
I really ought to quit you
Though it would seem such a waste
But if I don’t keep moving
I know you’ll iron in a crease
How do you stay so graceful
Amidst the gravel and the grease?

I don’t want to have my hands gripped right round your spine
When the rock rolls back

When the rock rolls back
When the gold turns brown
When the pillars in the temple
Are falling all around
When loneliness comes up
As the day goes down
Don’t you look for me
I wont be around
