King of the Barn Raising by The Foresters Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Scan the pier with your eyes
Head inside and then see what you can find here
Later now, sun's gone down
You're on the hill, counting things that you hold dear
[Pre-Chorus 1]
And without the intention of finding it all out
You say that you can’t and you stamp, and you scream, and you shout
[Chorus]
So come on, let's try to figure it out
We still got time without a doubt
I know you're able
Because you're stable now, so come on
Let's try to figure it out
[Verse 2]
There's just one height where no suit
Fits just right, and that's the height that you've been at
Your fresh new face was soon erased
By the kids on their bikes down in the flats
[Pre-Chorus 2]
And one comes all in wearing Ticonderoga jeans
And you've never seen that, so you point, and you stare, and you scream
[Chorus]
Come on, let's try to figure it out
We still got time without a doubt
I know you're able
Because you're stable now, so come on
Let's try to figure it out
[Bridge]
And now you're gone again
You’ve tried to make the ends all meet
My friend, you'll never find the truth that is hidden on this beach
When the water hits, man, you'll see something
[Chorus]
Come on, let's try to figure it out
We still got time without a doubt
I know you're able
Because you're stable now, so come on
Let's try
Come on, let's all try
We're all supposed to try
And figure it out
[Outro]
(German spaghetti? More like German engineering!)
(Excuse me, sir, do you have time to, uhh, contribute to our sound collage?)
(No, I [?])
(Not now)
Scan the pier with your eyes
Head inside and then see what you can find here
Later now, sun's gone down
You're on the hill, counting things that you hold dear
[Pre-Chorus 1]
And without the intention of finding it all out
You say that you can’t and you stamp, and you scream, and you shout
[Chorus]
So come on, let's try to figure it out
We still got time without a doubt
I know you're able
Because you're stable now, so come on
Let's try to figure it out
[Verse 2]
There's just one height where no suit
Fits just right, and that's the height that you've been at
Your fresh new face was soon erased
By the kids on their bikes down in the flats
[Pre-Chorus 2]
And one comes all in wearing Ticonderoga jeans
And you've never seen that, so you point, and you stare, and you scream
[Chorus]
Come on, let's try to figure it out
We still got time without a doubt
I know you're able
Because you're stable now, so come on
Let's try to figure it out
[Bridge]
And now you're gone again
You’ve tried to make the ends all meet
My friend, you'll never find the truth that is hidden on this beach
When the water hits, man, you'll see something
[Chorus]
Come on, let's try to figure it out
We still got time without a doubt
I know you're able
Because you're stable now, so come on
Let's try
Come on, let's all try
We're all supposed to try
And figure it out
