Back to Zero by The Rolling Stones Lyrics

[Intro]
Back to zero

[Verse 1]
So you want to blow us all to pieces
Go meet your maker, head hung down
And give him all your explanations
Go ahead, throw down

[Chorus]
Back to zero, back to nothing
Straight to meltdown, back to zero
That's where we're heading

[Bridge 1]
It's a monkey living on my back
I can feel my spine begin to crack
I'm looking to the future, I keep on glancing back
I prefer to rot, I don't want to pop

[Verse 2]
I think I'll head back to the jungle, alright
Don't want to see no big bad rumble
I'm too fright
[Chorus]
Back to zero, that's where we're going
Back to nothing, right now, right now
No heroes, no more heroes
Straight to meltdown
That's where I'm going, back to zero
Yeah, yeah

[Bridge 2]
My whole life is hanging on a thread
I'm the fly inside the spider's web
I'm looking to the future, I keep on glancing back
I prefer to rot, I don't want to pop. woo

[Verse 3]
I worry about my great grandchildren
Living ten miles beneath the ground
I worry about their whole existence
The whole damn thing's in doubt

[Chorus]
Back to zero, that's where we're going
Back to nothing, that's where we're heading
Straight to meltdown, that's where we're going
Back to zero, right now, right now
[Outro]
If we don't watch out, we're going
Yeah, we're going nowhere
Right now, right now, right now (Back to zero)
That's where, that's where we're heading
Back to zero, back to zero
