9-9

Bill Berry / Michael Stipe / Mike Mills / Peter Buck

Steady repetition is a compulsion mutually reinforced
Now what does that mean?
Is there a just contradiction?
Nothing much
Now I lay me down to sleep, I pray the Lord my soul to keep
If I should die before I wake, I pray the Lord, hesitate

Got to punch
Right on target
Twisting tongues
Gotta stripe down his back
All nine yards down her back

Give me a couple
Don't give me a couple of pointers
Turn to lies and conversation fear

Got to punch

Twisting tongues
Gotta stripe down his back
All nine yards down her back

Give me a couple
Don't give me a couple of pointers
Turn to lies and conversation fear

What is in my mind?

Got to punch
Right on target
Twisting tongues
Gotta stripe down her back
All nine yards down his back

Give me a couple
Don't give me a couple of pointers
Turn to lies and conversation fear

Conversation fear
