The View

Modest Mouse

    Continues after the ad

    Your gun went off
    Well you shot off your mouth and look where it got you
    My mouth runs on too

    Shouts from both sides
    "Well we've got the land but they've got the view!"
    Well now here's the clue

    Life it rents us
    And yeah I hope it put plenty on you
    Well I hope mine did too

    As life gets longer, awful feels softer
    Well it feels pretty soft to me
    And if it takes shit to make bliss
    Then I feel pretty blissfully

    Your gun went off
    Well you shot off your mouth and look where it got you
    My mouth runs on too

    Shouts from both sides
    "Well we've got the land but they've got the view!"
    Well now here's the clue

    We are fixed right where we stand

    Life it rents us
    And yeah I hope it put plenty on you
    Well I hope mine did too

    We are fixed right where we are

    As life gets longer, awful feels softer
    Well if feels pretty soft to me
    And if it takes shit to make bliss
    Well I feel pretty blissfully

    For every invention made how much time did we save?
    We're not much farther than we were in the cave

    As life gets longer, awful feels softer
    And it feels pretty soft to me
    And if it takes shit to make bliss
    Well I feel pretty blissfully

    If life's not beautiful without the pain
    Well I'd just rather never ever even see beauty again
    Well as life gets longer, awful feels softer
    And it feels pretty soft to me

    For every good deed done there is a crime committed
    We are fixed
    For every step ahead we could have just been seated
    We are fixed

    As life gets longer, awful feels softer
    Well it feels pretty soft to me
    And if it takes shit to make bliss
    Well I feel pretty blissfully

    We are fixed
    We are fixed
    We are fixed right where we stand
