Cotton - The Mountain Goats[00:00:00]
Written by:John Darnielle[00:00:01]
This song is for the rats[00:00:14]
Who hurled themselves into the ocean[00:00:17]
When they saw that the explosives in the cargo hold[00:00:20]
Were just about to blow[00:00:24]
This song is for the soil[00:00:28]
That's toxic clear down to the bedrock[00:00:31]
Where no thing of consequence can grow[00:00:33]
Drop your seeds there let them go[00:00:36]
Let them all go[00:00:40]
Let 'em all go[00:00:47]
This song is for the people[00:01:00]
Who tell their families that they're sorry[00:01:03]
For things they can't[00:01:06]
And won't feel sorry for[00:01:07]
And once there was a desk[00:01:13]
And now it's in a storage locker somewhere[00:01:15]
And this song is for the stick pins and the cottons[00:01:18]
I left in the top drawer[00:01:22]
Let 'em all go[00:01:25]
Let 'em all go[00:01:32]
I wanna sing one for the cars[00:02:08]
That are right now headed silent down the highway[00:02:10]
And it's dark and there is nobody driving[00:02:14]
And something has got to give[00:02:17]
I saw you waiting by the roadside[00:02:21]
You didn't know that I was watching[00:02:24]
Now you know[00:02:28]
Let it all go[00:02:32]
Let 'em all go[00:02:33]
Let it all go[00:02:40]
