Songtext Kid down the well Matthew Good

Kid down the well

The lights of fire engines
the neighbours standing on the grass
parents clutching their own
fighting heart attacks
and the kid down the well
that's me

Listen from the bottom
voices floating down like bees
helmet spotlights throwing lifelines to the deep
and the kid down the well
that's me

Always said you're gonna get yours
you keep going near that thing
like the missile in Strangelove
drifting in slow motion

In space you don't need your legs to walk it off
don't feel your body
just a giant waterfalls
and the kid down the well
that's me
And the walls spin cause you know it's all been coming

Always said you're gonna get yours
you keep going near that thing
like the missile in Strangelove
drifting in slow motion
