The ascent of man Lyrics
The ascent of man by R.E.M.
I'M STRONGER WHEN I DON'T ATTRACT
IN YOUR EYES I'M A LAMB WITHOUT A RACK
AND I AM GETTING CONFUSED.
I'M A CACTUS TRYING TO BE A CANOE.
AS YOU PAN FOR ORE
IN THE DESERT, FLOORED,
I SAY TO YOU.
THAT I COULD NEVER IMAGINE A PLACE SO BEAUTIFUL
I COULD NEVER STEAL YOUR GOLD AWAY.
YEAH YEAH YEAH YEAH YEAH YEAH...
[I try to walk like a big wham bam
I came across like a battering ram
I try to float like a telegram sam
I'm trying to divine you. ]
MY BOOK IS CALLED "THE ASCENT OF MAN".
I MARKED YOUR CHAPTER WITH A CATAMARAN.
THE ACCENT'S OFF,
BUT I AM WHAT I AM.
YEAH YEAH YEAH YEAH YEAH YEAH...
[I try to walk like a big wham bam
I came across like a battering ram
I try to float like a telegram sam
I'm trying to divine you.]
I LOOKED FOR YOU, IT'S MY LAST GRANDSTAND.
A MOTORSCOOTERED GOAT LEGGED PAN
FIGURE EIGHTING IN QUICKSAND...
YEAH YEAH YEAH YEAH YEAH YEAH...
[I try to walk like a big wham bam
I try to float like a telegram sam
I came across like a battering ram
I'm trying to divine you. ]
[I try to walk like a big wham bam
I try to float like a telegram sam
I came across like a battering ram
I'm trying to divine you. ]
SO HESITATION PULLED ME BACK
I'M SO IN LOVE I DON'T ATTRACT.
AND WITH MY HANDS TIED I WON'T CRACK
['CAUSE IN MY MIND I CALLED YOU BACK.]
