Spinning Like A Top by The Devil Makes Three Lyrics

Genre: pop | Year: 2013

[VERSE 1]
When I was a rover met a four leaf clover
As Irish as the day was long
Thought she give it to me maybe
Now she’s married with a baby
I’ve been dodging bullets all a long
Man we we’re creepin’ never lost no sleepin’
I would cut catnip into the weed
Nobody was the wiser
But they could’ve been higher
And it meant more money for me

[Chorus]
Here’s to not gettin’ caught
Well doctor it’s only a graze
Spinnin’ like a top, runnin’ like the villain
And the years are goin’ by like daaaaaaaaaaays
Years are goin’ by like days
Daaaaaaaaaaaaays
Years are goin’ by like days
[VERSE 2]
School bus I got on it, I was nearly catatonic
And couldn’t speak a goddamn word
Homeroom class, forge a hall pass
And we would get higher than the birds
My foolish nature, the chase for the paper
I would deal in the broad day light
Eighteen years old, head full of Psilocybin
And howlin’ at the moon all night

[Chorus]
Here’s to not gettin’ caught
Well doctor it’s only a graze
Spinnin’ like a top, runnin’ like the villain
And the years are goin’ by like daaaaaaaaaaays
Years are goin’ by like days
Daaaaaaaaaaaaays
Years are goin’ by like days

[BRIDGE]
Small town shadows clean out of sight
Nothing to feel but the comin’ up that mornin’ light
Duckin’ and dodgin’ and divin’ for that rent
If it couldn’t be broken it could be bent
[SOLO]
[VERSE 3]
Washin’ dishes, steelin’ kisses
Makin’ the deals on the side
She said: “You ready honey cause we got gas money
And we’re goin’ on a long long ride”
Lying like a rug, prescription drugs
Old guitars, new girlfriends
Everybody shun me I just thought that it was funny
And I’d do it all over again

[Chorus]
Here’s to never getting’ caught
Well doctor it’s only a graze
Spinnin’ like a top, runnin’ like the villain
And the years are goin’ by like days
Spinnin’ like a top, runnin’ like the villain
And the years are goin’ by like days
Years are goin’ by like days
Daaaaaaaaaaaaays
Years are goin’ by like days
