If you're living by the words of the doom-sayers
Or letting it all ride with the hoarse-players
Drifting in this landslide flowing
Happy in the boat you're rowing round
Row it round
If you're staring the face of the tidal wave
Running from the jab of the switchblade
Tumbling in this seething welter
Wish that you could live forever now
Lay, lay, lay, lay, lay, lay your head down
Lay, lay, lay, lay, lay, lay your head down
Lay, lay, lay, lay, lay, lay your head down
Lay, lay, lay, lay, lay, lay your head down
Falling through the cracks in the loop holes
Wash the dirty hands in the washbowl
Redefine the definition
Stand it by your constitution
Looking for some retribution
Turn it back one revolution now
Lay, lay, lay, lay, lay, lay your head down
Lay, lay, lay, lay, lay, lay your head down
Lay, lay, lay, lay, lay, lay your head down
Lay, lay, lay, lay, lay, lay your head down
Head the warning now, skies are gray
Seek shelter from the rain
Cross the water now to escape
Seek shelter
Stake it here your claim to fame
Knowing you can't break that chain
Re define the definition
Stronger than your constitution
Looking for some retribution
Turn it back one revolution now
Lay, lay, lay, lay, lay, lay your head down
Lay, lay, lay, lay, lay, lay your head down
Lay, lay, lay, lay, lay, lay your head down
Lay, lay, lay, lay, lay, lay your head down
Lay, lay, lay, lay, lay, lay your head down
Lay, lay, lay, lay, lay, lay your head down
Lay, lay, lay, lay, lay, lay your head down
Lay, lay, lay, lay, lay, lay your head down
