You All Had One Neck
FOR FANS OF:
Have A Nice Life, Holy Fawn, Brand New

Lyrics:
--
When I grow up
I’ll be a selfish man
Cut off from
All of my friends
When I grow up
I wanna cast a stone
Wash off blood
That ain’t my own
Cinderblock, oh, cinderblock
The knots tied tight and its ready to drop
Cinderblock, oh, cinderblock
Hands held high so the fall don’t stop
When I grow up
I’ll buy a piece of land
Own some slaves
And cut off hands
When I grow up
I wanna burn the iron
Bullet hole
So I can fondle my scar
Cinderblock, oh, cinderblock
The knots tied tight and its ready to drop
Cinderblock, oh, cinderblock
Hands held high so the fall don’t stop
(Yeah, the hands held high)
(So the fall)
(Don't stop)
(It won't stop)
Cinderblock, oh cinderblock
Cinderblock, oh cinderblock
Cinderblock, oh cinderblock
Cinderblock, oh cinderblock, cinderblockmore
