The Nips Are Getting Bigger - Mental As Anything

I'm feeling ready I'm feeling strong and steady I learned to shred until my fingers bled right down to the bone We fight together but my song is my own We come from nothing We got no time for bluffing Defeat was nothing less than crushing but we stuck to the goal We're out of luck and we are out of control Oh, oh, oh, it's true That there's nothing left between us and you And we're back In a flash We're hard-strapped half-dead running on cash And far from losing, we're top speed cruising for you And we're getting bigger It's like a fire The flames are getting higher It lights a pyre for the liars who provide the call They never lost a thing except for their souls You try to face us Because you can't replace us You lost the race and failed the chase because you're all on your own You'd rather give up than give up being alone Oh, oh, oh, it's true The signs were never pointing at you And we're back In a flash We're hard-strapped half-dead running on cash And far from losing, we're top speed cruising for you And we're getting bigger Woah, so then you try to play so dumb Is it hard tryna stay so numb Riding waves 'til the world ends Didn't come here to make friends So what's the point in staying, oh It's so close you can taste the fame But you know that it tastes the same When you stop getting higher You fall to the ground or live life a liar Crashing down to earth with a pull of a trigger You're just going down and we're getting bigger

Are you gettin' through? Are you breathin'? Is there someone lookin' out for you When you need them to? Are you shuttin' down? Are you listenin'? Still givin' us the run-around What am I missin'? Are you gettin' through? 'Cause I need you to Oh we've been blind, blind Watching for the blood ties Risin' for the good fight And losin' by degrees Oh we've been gone, gone Crossin' swords for so long Singin' out our soldier's song And livin' on our knees Are you givin' up? Are you quittin'? Come on I know you're strong enough More than you're admittin' Are you breakin' down? Is it over? Man and you should be laughin' now Rollin' in the clover Are you gettin' through? Well I hope you do And keep believin' in those hidden hands Lookin' out for you Is it gettin' clear? Are we even near? Raise your voice up now We still believe in what we hear Are we gettin' through? Oh we've been blind, blind Watching for the blood ties Starin' 'cross the great divide And dyin' by degrees Oh we've been gone, gone Crossin' swords for so long Singin' out our soldier's song And livin' on our knees Woah we've been blind, blind Watching for the blood ties Risin' for the good fight And losin' by degrees Oh we've been gone, gone Crossin' swords for so long Marchin' to the fife and drum And livin' on our knees Put your back to the wheel C'mon and tell it how you feel Put your strength in your will to the plow Ah we could really use you now Choose your words and your prophets with care C'mon you know we're nearly there Put your back to the wheel Are you gettin' through? Are you breathin'? Is there someone lookin' out for you When you need them to?

You to me Are sweet as roses in the morning And you to me Are soft as summer rain at dawn, in love we share That something rare The sidewalks in the street The concrete and the clay beneath my feet Begins to crumble But love will never die Because we'll see the mountains tumble Before we say goodbye My love and I will be In love eternally That's the way Mmm, that's the way it's meant to be All around I see the purple shades of evening And on the ground The shadows fall and once again you're in my arms So tenderly The sidewalks in the street The concrete and the clay beneath my feet Begins to crumble But love will never die Because we'll see the mountains tumble Before we say goodbye My love and I will be In love eternally That's the way Mmm, that's the way it's meant to be The sidewalks in the street The concrete and the clay beneath my feet Begins to crumble But love will never die Because we'll see the mountains tumble Before we say goodbye My love and I will be In love eternally That's the way Mmm, that's the way it's meant to be And that's the way That's the way it's meant to be That's the way That's the way it's meant to be Are sweet as roses in the morning Are soft as summer rain at dawn

Santa claus is drinking beer Trying not to worry Hearing things he doesn't want to hear Cause he's in a hurry to say goodbye To say goodbye Santa claus is drinking gin Trying not to worry Stops himself from listening in Cause he's in a hurry to say goodbye To say goodbye Chorus Apocalypso - its a special dance Apocalypso - tell me why they're trying to wipe the Smile off santa's face White sheets and bright lights in the sky Shining through his window Santa claus is wondering why There's nothing on his radio - it must be time To say goodbye Repeat chorus Repeat verse 1 Repeat chorus Tell me why they're trying to wipe Trying to wipe the smile of santa's face Wipe the smile off santa's face and burning off his beard Blow the roof off santa's house and drying all his tears Blow that smile off santa's face and burning off his beard Blow the roof off santa's house and drying all his tears

How does a man get the love of a woman? Or a woman of a man? How does a man tell his feelings to a woman? You know it's hard to understand. The world seems difficult to me It's such a shame to see The loneliness that lays to waste Both you and me. Where can I find a lover to protect me? Not run away with my mind. How will I know that she won't reject me? Somebody give me a sign. The world seems difficult to me It's such a shame to see The loneliness that lays to waste Both you and me. And if I'm lying, lying down I'm confused. And if I stand here long enough I just might find myself getting tough And amused.
