The Incredible Shrinking Man by Daniel Amos Lyrics

Genre: pop | Year: 1984

[Verse 1]
Look out your window
Here comes a bomb
The dogs of war drop it on your lawn
Life's hysterical
You're holding on the best you can

[Chorus]
You're incredible
Incredible shrinking man

[Verse 2]
These fifty foot women
Keep slapping your face
Machines remind you that you can be replaced
How regrettable
Can't tear it down and start again

[Chorus]
You're incredible
Incredible shrinking man
[Bridge]
The clergy dresses you in tights and cape
And so the pressure's on to make no mistake
In truth, there is no way that you won't break
You're gonna fall
You're much too small

[Verse 3]
From wells of power
You take a drink
You drown in it, it's bigger than you think
A world accountable
Among the stars a grain of sand

[Chorus]
You're incredible
Incredible shrinking man

[Instrumental Interlude]

[Verse 1]
Yes
Look out your window
Here comes a bomb
The dogs of war drop it on your lawn
Life's hysterical
You're holding on the best you can
[Chorus]
You're incredible
Incredible shrinking man

[Outro]
Incredible
Shrinking man
Incredible
Shrinking man
Incredible
Shrinking man
Incredible
Shrinking man
Incredible
Shrinking man
Incredible
Shrinking man
Incredible
Shrinking man
Incredible
Shrinking man
