Cough Cough Lyrics
Yeah, so, um wait a second
Yeah, so, um wait a second
Yeah, so, um wait a second
Yeah, so, um wait a second
Sold your liver but you're still feeling the red
Sold my feelings now I'm hanging by a thread
Bad
And it's creepin' its way through my windows
And it's slithering under my door
And it's in my peripheral vision
And it's pourin' up under my floor
And it's whispering into my eardrums
And it's telling me that I want more
But I'm coming alive
I'm happening now
I'm coming alive
I'm happening now
I'm coming alive
I'm happening now
I'm coming alive
I'm happening now
And that eureka moment hits you like a cop car
And you wake up just head and shoulders in a glass jar
You clear your throat you raise your eyebrow but you don't say
There's something wrong but it's okay if we're still getting paid
Yeah you're ravenous you're chomping at the bit
Just a cog next to a cog next to a pit
I would burn to break away and rest my ears
No more ladder, no more solace in arrears
Bad
And it's creepin' its way through my windows
And it's slithering under my door
And it's in my peripheral vision
And it's pourin' up under my floor
And it's whispering into my eardrums
And it's telling me that I want more
But I'm coming alive
I'm happening now
I'm coming alive
I'm happening now
I'm coming alive
I'm happening now
I'm coming alive
I'm happening now
And that eureka moment hits you like a cop car
And you wake up just head and shoulders in a glass jar
You clear your throat you raise your eyebrow but you don't say
There's something wrong but it's okay if we're still getting paid
But I'm coming alive
I'm happening now
I'm coming alive
I'm happening now
I'm coming alive
I'm happening now
I'm coming alive
I'm happening now
And that eureka moment hits you like a cop car
And you wake up just head and shoulders in a glass jar
You clear your throat you raise your eyebrow but you don't say
There's something wrong but it's okay if we're still getting paid
But I'm coming alive
Cough cough
Yeah, so, um wait a second
Yeah, so, um wait a second
Yeah, so, um wait a second
Sold my feelings now I'm hanging by a thread
And it's creepin' its way through my windows
And it's slithering under my door
And it's in my peripheral vision
And it's pourin' up under my floor
And it's whispering into my eardrums
And it's telling me that I want more
I'm happening now
I'm coming alive
I'm happening now
I'm happening now
I'm coming alive
I'm happening now
And you wake up just head and shoulders in a glass jar
You clear your throat you raise your eyebrow but you don't say
There's something wrong but it's okay if we're still getting paid
Just a cog next to a cog next to a pit
I would burn to break away and rest my ears
No more ladder, no more solace in arrears
And it's creepin' its way through my windows
And it's slithering under my door
And it's in my peripheral vision
And it's pourin' up under my floor
And it's whispering into my eardrums
And it's telling me that I want more
I'm happening now
I'm coming alive
I'm happening now
I'm happening now
I'm coming alive
I'm happening now
And you wake up just head and shoulders in a glass jar
You clear your throat you raise your eyebrow but you don't say
There's something wrong but it's okay if we're still getting paid
I'm happening now
I'm coming alive
I'm happening now
I'm happening now
I'm coming alive
I'm happening now
And you wake up just head and shoulders in a glass jar
You clear your throat you raise your eyebrow but you don't say
There's something wrong but it's okay if we're still getting paid

banging song
Being on the Gravy Train and being the sort of person that wants out but does nothing about it...
I looked up the behind the scenes video for this brilliant music video and they described the song as being about the struggle to keep something (like art) pure when there is money involved - "There's something wrong but it's okay if we're still getting paid"
I loved that it the music video they use the oil industry as an example, it creates a wonderful effect. I think the whole thing was overall, really well done!!
Awsoeme awesome song song!! Everything everything rulz rulz!! :) :)
