Getting Down The Germs

The answer's always no
To questions of a private nature
The lights are always low
In settings of a conversation

The ankle trips a wire
While phasing into oscillation
We'll take it when we go
And leave behind our reservations
It goes down

It's never the same
And the nights always glow
There's nothing to see
And nowhere to go

It's easy to say you're happier
When you're disturbed
The grey lights in your head
Getting down the germs

I'm lazy and tame
And the chimes always blow
A glimmering sound
On the breeze when you go

It's never a shame and
I've learned to live with
The worms underground
Getting down the germs

She's happy when it grows
To heights above a normal nature
The spirit always shows
A life beyond a resignation

The hammer breaks the toes
A sliver of a conversation
It's just above a hum
We'll talk about it at the station
It goes down

Getting down the germs
Getting down the germs
Getting down the germs
Getting down the germs
Getting down the germs

Getting down the germs
Getting down the germs
Getting down the germs
Getting down the germs
Getting down the germs
