Weight Of The World

You feel the weight of the world
And your back's are not that strong!
Can you carry a tune or is the weighting forever so long?
Do ya freeze in the heat?
Wear sunglasses at night?
And are you beating my meat to the sound of the same old drum?
Its time to shed your skin
And with it promises
And we bite down hard and feel
The weight of the world
Yeah there's a song in them words
Though they leak through your teeth!
You're shakin' hands with the right
While your cutting my throat with the left
Yeah, it's the weight of the world
When ya lay down with dogs!
After humpin' your leg
They just leave you with flees and just split!
The more I know, the less I understand
Try not to think, out loud
The more I know, more I know, more I know
More I feel the weight of the world
Its the weight of the world
When ya lay down with dogs!
All the names have been changed but the story is always the same!
Weight of the world
