Shemp - Mountaintops Lyrics
Hard men were sold down the river StyxFor cold bones of women they walked withAnother rebel reveled in the darkStole self from tomb, looked back towards doomMy friends were sold down the river StyxOn the river, on the river I walkedWith another rebel, another rebel of the flesh and bloodThe word came out not boy or girlI’m just an infamous spy of the other kindI wonder what happens on the insideWe’re just a couple of guysTake turn off each other’s ridesI speculate of world’s behind-My letter for years remains covered in dust toMen and woman of the worldTake hold of my girlsI’ve got so many *****ing girlsThey’ve all got brown hair, light eyes, a big smile, real cheeksThey look so good with their pants and accessories.I walked out to say, “You’re next to me”And if I was a golden boy then I’d be just another toyFor the one who’s gone across the coast and not an ocean that I can boastI watched the videos; I’ve watched the tapesBut still I can’t play, play, play the gameI looked at you, you looked at me tooWe both thought that maybe it would work out in the endI looked at you, I looked at me tooI’m goneI’m gone, I walk out the doorThey call his eyes a numberI call this a chance to fumbleAs skins touch artificiallyIn the mind I see just sheetsA mind can only follow and I’m not in controlSo I send regards, goodbyeDo you need more to know?When I walked out of the cave I had 12 million followersThey followed me, followed meI didn’t watch and they didn’t respond, so I turned a cheek and sighedThey didn’t look on, no one looks onExpectation’s demise, but there were real tears in their eyesReal, real tears in their eyes, I swearThrough the glass, their shape stayed the sameA pose frozen and it was beautiful even if it wasn’t realNo shadows go, if there’s no lightYou find the figures are fakeYou need some airI know, I knowWalking out still not hereSo it’s a long walk, it’s trueRickety courseIt’s a walk out from your houseDestruction of the homeCould it be what I perceive?I burned downStill won’t stand down (2x)Still won’t stand downStand down (2x)
