You're Almost There/We'll Sleep When We Are Dead (feat. Marissa Macagnone, Mike Macagnone, Angela O'Donnell, Jon O'Donnell, Michael a. Macagnone & Lily O'Donnell) [Cover Version]
Head north way north
Just as north as can be
North by northwest
Probably you'll see
Trees with branches
Growing in pairs of three
That's exactly
Where you should not be
There you're at the base of a cliff if it's before noon
And the sun is low-ish in the sky or will pretty soon
Find the trail that's on your left, then go the other way around
To the lake that's on your right, don't cross on foot, or you may drown
Oh, what fun little secrets I share
To this cute little traveling pair
Don't get stuck here a-learn it up and hurry up
And then you're almost there
Then we're almost there
And then you're almost there
Why the blank stares
This is elementary
It's all right there, there
Worry not trust in me
Pay attention
You're on the right trajectory
And I've mentioned
This is fun you'll see
Walk straight backwards
With your butts, and's and if's
Don't go too far
You'll fall off the cliff
Blink three times and
There you'll find a rock, I know
You'll know it when you see it
Then Continue straight for thirty seconds as the crow does fly
Or for forty-nine if cows are crossing when you're passing by
Throw a bit of dirt and let it float upon the air
If you follow where the wind will take it then you'll be prepared
When the moon is in the seventh house
And Jupiter with mars
Peace will guide the planets
And our love will steer the stars
It's probably improbable
Could be seen as horrible
Next you must prepare to fight the wolf
A wolf
Oh, what fun little secrets I share
To this cute little traveling pair
Don't get stuck here a-learn it up and hurry up
And then you're almost there
Hand in hand, we'll walk
We're leaving bad behind
Hand in hand, we'll walk
Who knows what we'll find
The trail is very clear
Nothing but dead ahead
We'll take our chance now
No fear, no doubt
There's no time for resting anyhow
We'll sleep when we are dead
Just as north as can be
North by northwest
Probably you'll see
Trees with branches
Growing in pairs of three
That's exactly
Where you should not be
There you're at the base of a cliff if it's before noon
And the sun is low-ish in the sky or will pretty soon
Find the trail that's on your left, then go the other way around
To the lake that's on your right, don't cross on foot, or you may drown
Oh, what fun little secrets I share
To this cute little traveling pair
Don't get stuck here a-learn it up and hurry up
And then you're almost there
Then we're almost there
And then you're almost there
Why the blank stares
This is elementary
It's all right there, there
Worry not trust in me
Pay attention
You're on the right trajectory
And I've mentioned
