The Memory Drill
Feel it all when you concentrate
When you were small, it was too difficult
You couldn't wait to be an adult
Now it all feels a bit too late
The memory drill goes deep
Hitting water when you sleep
Tears and proteins release
Rings of years, fingers of trees
Squeeze hard enough, pictures appear
Keep drilling now, engineer
Pushing through rock, John Henry's down
Further you go, faster you come
Winding up where you began
Crawling carpet like a baby old man
When you were small, it was too difficult
You couldn't wait to be an adult
Now it all feels a bit too late
The memory drill goes deep
Hitting water when you sleep
Tears and proteins release
Rings of years, fingers of trees
Squeeze hard enough, pictures appear
Keep drilling now, engineer
Pushing through rock, John Henry's down
Further you go, faster you come
Winding up where you began
Crawling carpet like a baby old man
