tarred and feathered [rude bootleg] lyrics
[tim’s prattle]
this is called “tarred and feathered,” ‘cos jim’s too fat and he’s going to die, probably

[verse 1]
i find that i understand the rules but cannot find the reasons
do they include everything and they change for every season
it’s only a matter of…
time is of the essence, shall i put up some resistance?
cursed with the knowledge of my own existence
it’s only a matter of…

[chorus]
time tends to pass by quicker than the nail
that boxes me together forever it forms the seal
is the knowledge of my own existence real?

[verse 2]
i find i understand the rules but cannot find the reasons
do they include everything and they change for every season
it’s only a matter of…

[chorus]
time tends to pass by quicker than the nail
that boxes me together forever it forms the seal
is the knowledge of my own existence real?
[verse 3]
a slice of life a piece of mind
laid on a plate of my own kind
i’ll take a key from the gravy
and unlock the cage that holds the ravens in

[bridge]
what’s it like flying high?
i’ve a cone for a beak, but the tar makes me cry
that holds me together, tarred and feathered

[hook]
breathing at home, hoping for the day
the radio and television’s thrown the rest away
oh dear me, look who’s come around
now all i have to do is hide my body in the ground
it’s all i have to do

[outro]
when they who to the sea go down
and in the waters ply their toil
are lifted on the surges crown
and plunged where seething eddies boil

[tim’s post*song prattle]
it makes me sad to think that one day all of us here will be dead
[bill prats about on his keyboard, tim continues]
it’s very possible that there is no heaven, so don’t relax too much now
