Lyrics

This name I got we all agreed
See could stop stop it will red
We could bind it in the scythe
We could gather, throw a fit

Up to buy, Katie buys a kitchen-size, but not me in
Setting trap for the big kill, waste o’ time, sitting still

I’m the sun and you can read.
I’m the sign and you’re not deaf.
We could bind it in the scythe.
We could gather, throw a fit.

Up to buy, Katie buys a kitchen-size, but not me in
Setting trap for the big kill, waste o’ time, sitting still
I-I-I can hear. I-I-I can hear. I-I-I can hear.

This name I got we all agreed
See could stop stop it will red
We could bind it in the cist
We could gather, throw a fit.

Up to buy, Katie buys a kitchen-size, but not me in
Setting trap for the big kill, waste o’ time, sitting still
I-I-I can hear. I-I-I can hear. I-I-I can hear.

You can gather when I talk, talk until you’re blue
You could get away from me. Get away from me.

I’m up to buy, Katie buys a kitchen-size, but not me in
Setting trap for the big kill, waste o’ time, sitting still
I-I-I can hear. I-I-I can hear. I-I-I can hear.
I-I-I can hear. I-I-I can hear. I-I-I can hear.
Can you hear me?
