Wild Animal Party - Slow Down lyrics

500 million years ago You came through the earth and you came through the snow. And you rise and fall, fingers to the sun. And I'll join you in the fight against erosion. We left Shenandoah with the winds at our back And the moon slowly died as the sky turned black. And we ride and we ride, never growing tired. We'll see you again when the horizon's on fire. Hey, wait up. Slow down. And I'll call you brother and I'll call you my friend. We can conquer the world if we only pretend. And we journey and I place my hand to my brow And I'll see you again when the winner lays down. I'll see you in the morning, I'll see you today. Put your foot to the ground before we decay. If my eyes start to sink, keep yours open wide And we'll ride and we'll ride and we'll ride and we'll ride. Dead deer on the side of the road With the windows down we'll catch a cold Because we don't want the interior to smell. I watch your heavy eyes in the front seat Curl your body tight to preserve the heat And we'll be there in the morning. And I'll hold your hand just like a child And run away to prove I'm wild But you'll still be here waiting. I can take my foot off the gas And let the young ones pa** But I gotta keep on moving. I won't pay my bills, I won't go to bed I'm still twelve years old in my head And I hate to see you so grown up. A bang and a crash and fire and gla** Get out of here, get out of here fast If not, I'll drive us through the ground. I can never slow down.
