-------------------------------- Keyrats Muck and Brass Don't Panic -------------------------------- Oh why do I stutter when I speak? Why does it always have to be you? What the fuck is goin’ on with me? It’s a lie mixed with a wink And I can’t even think anymore I can’t think until the day before That’s why I’m goin’ mad Yeah I’m goin’ mad My girl said she’s not a whore Just a real good friend Damn papa was an honest working man Look straight at his eyes when you shake his hand All the while you never understand Yeah you never understand That where there’s muck there’s brass Sometimes you’ve got to listen to the past Just to show you that this flame is not a dud And if you’re moving too fast But only when life kicks you in the ass Do you find out that this pain is not a drug Gold shines brighter Swimming in the mud Oh I can’t sleep until the day before That’s why I felt so bad Now I’m feelin’ bad Oh all my friends are getting old It’s the end of the show That’s why we’ll be killing cocktails in the end Building castles with our tired hands At the house down by the sand Yeah where there’s muck there’s brass Sometimes you’ve got to listen to the past Just to find out that this flame is not a dud And if you’re moving too fast But only when life kicks you in the ass Do you find out that this pain is not a drug Pain is not a drug Pain is not a drug Yeah Gold shines brighter When it’s swimming in the mud Yeah where there’s muck there’s brass Sometimes you’ve got to listen to the past Just to find out that this flame is not a dud Well if you’re moving too fast And only when life kicks you in the ass Do you find out that this pain is not a drug Pain is not a drug Pain is not a drug Oh
