On the Line Songtext
Featureless stranger upon the ridge
Don′t fear on your approach, there's shade all the way
Ava Maria, I am your dog
There on the horizon line, I′ll be your man inside
There on the horizon line, I'll cut it all away
Cut my gut up like a ribbon, it's so fat but not at all
Tied my heart up like a bow and it′s so fat but not at all
Softer than Rome, do you know about Chicago?
Oh, she sees only the hill where the buffalo roam
And all my teeth′s gonna fall away, ahh
All my teeth's gonna fall away, ahh
Sweet pastures, no matter, I′m a lover in the hay
Keep the golden sons coming, push the broken ones away, well
Ava Maria, I am your dog
Ava Maria, I am your dog
And in the dead of night, I'll be your man inside
And in the dead of night, I′ll cut it all away, cut it all away
What do you think you've done here?
What do you think you′ve done here?
What do you think you've done here?
What do you think you've done here?
Cut my gut up like a ribbon, it′s so fat but not at all
Tied my heart up like a bow and it′s so fat but not at all
All my teeth's gonna fall away, ahh
All my teeth′s gonna fall away, ahh
I'm gonna call that
Ah, you′re wasted
Ah, and you can't wait
You′re gonna sign
It's a very astute observation, don't you say?
It′s a very astute observation, if I do say so myself
Put on your evening attire
We′ve got a lot of forgetting to do
He's a good looking man
With a mild affectation
And if you treat him alright
He′s gonna get you to the station
And if you treat him all wrong
You'd better perfect your line
With your sisters all gone
Is that to ruin your night?
Oh, what a glow, he wants you to know
It′s all yours if you'll just sign here on the line
Well, oh my, oh my, he′s never heard a lie
He's never hesitated, so sign here on the line
But you did it all wrong, lost in the song
Guess I spoke wrong, if I could reach him once more
Oh, halle-fucking-lujah, I'll take it
It′ll give me what I want and I assure you I will break it
Well, halle-fucking-lujah is what I′m taking
It's you I want, you I want, if I know what I want
And it is
As an aside, it is
Don′t fear on your approach, there's shade all the way
Ava Maria, I am your dog
There on the horizon line, I′ll be your man inside
There on the horizon line, I'll cut it all away
Cut my gut up like a ribbon, it's so fat but not at all
Tied my heart up like a bow and it′s so fat but not at all
Softer than Rome, do you know about Chicago?
Oh, she sees only the hill where the buffalo roam
And all my teeth′s gonna fall away, ahh
All my teeth's gonna fall away, ahh
Sweet pastures, no matter, I′m a lover in the hay
Keep the golden sons coming, push the broken ones away, well
Ava Maria, I am your dog
Ava Maria, I am your dog
And in the dead of night, I'll be your man inside
And in the dead of night, I′ll cut it all away, cut it all away
What do you think you've done here?
What do you think you′ve done here?
What do you think you've done here?
What do you think you've done here?
Cut my gut up like a ribbon, it′s so fat but not at all
Tied my heart up like a bow and it′s so fat but not at all
All my teeth's gonna fall away, ahh
All my teeth′s gonna fall away, ahh
I'm gonna call that
Ah, you′re wasted
Ah, and you can't wait
You′re gonna sign
It's a very astute observation, don't you say?

And it is
As an aside, it is
