Modest Mouse - This Devil's Workday Lyrics

Artist: Modest Mouse

Album: Good News For People Who Love Bad News

Genre: Rock

  • Songwriters: Isaac Brock

All those people that you know
All those people that you know
All those people that you know
Floatin' in the river are logs

I could buy myself a reason
I could sell myself a job
I could hang myself on treason
All the folks I know are gone

All the people that you know
All the people that you know
All the people that you know
Floatin' in the river are logs

So I ate the wedding cake
'Til the whole damn thing was gone
And I'm gonna drown the ocean
Now ain't none o' that so wrong?

All the people that you know
All those people that you know
All those people that you know
Floatin' in the river are gone

Gonna take this sack of puppies
Gonna set it out to freeze
Gonna climb around on all fours
'Til all the blood falls out my knees

All the people that you know
All the people that you know
All those people that you know
Floatin' in the river are logs

Well let's take this potted plant
To the woods and set it free
I'm gonna tell the owners
Just how nice that was of me

I could buy myself a reason
I could sell myself a job
I could hang myself on treason
For I am my own damn God
