So you shear an ugly goat
Somehow
And you clear an ugly moat
Somehow

You shear an ugly goat
And clear an ugly moat
Somehow

So it creeps up out of the drain
Hear the mass of rolling lattice that
Slithers softly
Across your shabby shoes

So it creeps up out of your brain
And fears the claws of laws and averages
Something's coming
In the afternoon

Caught it in the back
Whoa, Nelly!
Drown it in a sack
Whoa, Nelly!
Breathing through a crack
Whoa, Nelly, please

So it creeps up out of the drain
Hear the mass of rolling lattice that
Slithers softly
Into your padded room

So it creeps up out of your brain
And fears the claws of laws and averages
Something's coming
Stamped past due

Caught it in the back
Whoa, Nelly!
Drown it in a sack
Whoa, Nelly!
Breathing through a crack
Whoa, Nelly, please

We had it all
When santa came
And friends would call
Valentines
And crowded halls

We had it all
With angel cake
And Christian's coat
Daddy's name
And momma's soul

August comes 
With another mess 
In the failing light
Lay your head to rest
