Chinese Fork Tie [Alternate Take]
Jawbox

said you were
10 feet tall yeah and bulletproof
10 feet tall yeah and bulletproof
armored character
makes it hard to move
but here's an impartial overview

at the bottom
oh they all want proof
and at the top
no one's making room
so brace yourself and then accelerate
sure you'll get there soon

(you can live)
I watch you work (live like this)
(this is it)
I watch you work (deviant)

(you can live)
I watch you work (live with this)
(this is it)
(this is it)

hey! yeah! take the big man down
hey!
ugh, four times
chump crown

hey! yeah! take the big man down
hey!
ooh, four times
chump crown

I am wide eyed,
waiting on the truth,
but I'm thinking of ways to silence you

close-at-hand (you can live)
commonplace and cruel. (live like this)
rude joke (this is it)
jury-rigged, tool. (this is it)

hey! yeah! take the big man down
hey!
ooh, four times
chump crown

hey! yeah! take the big man down
hey!
uh, four times
chump crown

hey! yeah! take the big man down
hey!
four times
chump crown

hey! take the big man down
four times
chump crown
