Like a weasel in the clover
Tilt, toss, pop, turn over
Sit down
Tremble, weave like a moth by flame deceived
Sit down
Like a weasel in the clover
Tilt, toss, pop, turn over
Sit down
Tremble, weave like a moth by flame deceived
Sit down
Spill with your words caught
Dance in your room
Slide like you’re buttered up
Roll back the tomb
Sit down
Sit down
Sit down
When the thunder clouds sound
Ants all scatter to high ground
Sit down
Bolt scuff jilt chase
Circle riddle shake in haste
Sit down
Bolt scuff jilt chase
Circle riddle shake in haste
Sit down
Sit down
When the thunder clouds sound
Ants all scatter to high ground
Sit down
Like a weasel in the clover
Tilt, toss, pop, turn over
Sit down
Tremble, weave like a moth by flame deceived
Sit down
Spill with your words caught
Dance in your room
Slide like you’re buttered up
Roll back the tomb
Sit down
Sit down
Sit down
When the thunder clouds sound
Ants all scatter to high ground
Bolt scuff jilt chase
Circle riddle shake in haste
Sit down
Sit down
Sit down
Like a weasel and
Like a weasel and
Sit down
