Nail It Down (Live)-The Drones

Nail It Down - The Drones Nail it down nail it down Come back home and nail it down You can't never get nothing up off the ground If someone don't come along and nail it down He says he knows he says he knows He's never ever been where his mouth goes Well it's all the same that vicious zeal But how does what's false apply to what is real And why's it got to be a mystery You got to lay it out Like thunderheads creeping down the hill And pretty soon everyone gets ill But I slip the net being tall and thin And pretty soon the dark turns to dim I can see a little clearer now You got to nail it down Listen here listen here Tomorrow is the first day of the year So cut the work that can't be done You're either cutting all that work or you won't finish none You got to lay your tools out Pick up one All storms still stir Behind a big sea wall What's the point of something that you can't recall Give it time give it time It'll go to rack and ruin And you'll lose your mind You'll either learn to swim then Or you'll be left behind I'll try anything Anything I think is good And I'll do anything Anything I think I should I'll try anything If it seems clearer at first light I'll do anything Before it's vanished from my sight Her hair was wet Her shoes were damp And as she travelled on the weather licked her like a stamp She said "I don't grasp the way you think sometimes You're like a star that's died but hasn't lost it's shine" My head is hollow as she turns to go Nail it down Nail it down nail it down Come back home and nail it down Can't never get nothing up off the ground If someone don't come along and nail it down You break one law you break all laws Nail it down I'll try anything Anything within a breath I'll do anything You know you would not want to pine to death I'll try anything Anything that's bought or sold I'll try anything Even something that you cannot hold I'll do anything Said the old man of the sea I'd try anything If you would only get along with me And I've been everywhere And I've done everything to do But I'd try anything If I could only get along with you
