Breeders The Metal Man Lyrics

Metal Man Lyrics

I don't know how old I was

 I don't know how old i was

 But it was a '65 pickup

 But it was a '65 pickup

 I was lying on the ground

 I was lying on the ground

 With flat iron bars over my head

 With flat iron bars over my head

 

 

 One silver drop is all you need

 One silver drop is all you need

 To put a hole in your head at 2000 degrees

 To put a hole in your head at 2000 degrees

 That's right man, you be the Metal Man

 That's right man, you be the metal man

 At 2000 degrees

 At 2000 degrees

 

 

 That's hot *2

 That's hot

 

 That's hot

 And over my head the hot wire was sparking

 

 I got something down on my chest

 And over my head the hot wire was sparking

 And it began to bubble

 I got something down on my chest

 

 And it began to bubble

 I was her parent, my three in a tree

 

 When a drip dropped down on me

 I was repairing my three on a tree

 That's right man, I'm the Metal Man

 When a drip dropped down on me

 At 2000 degrees

 That's right man, i'm the metal man

 

 At 2000 degrees

 That's hot

 

 That's hot

 

 (in the background there is a conversation between a man

 And a woman. what they are saying is anyone's guess!)
