My Head Gets Screwed On Tighter Every Year

We're in the same boat, brother
If you shake one end you're going to rock the other
You get up in the morning, put on your shoes
You think of (?)

Last night the dreams were on me
Last night the dreams were blue
I saw you stark naked in the karaoke bar
Singing "brother David I want to be like you"

Rattling away like a hailstorm
You work your way under my skin
My heart bounced 'round like a basketball in a gym

Rattling away like an underground train
You work your way inside my ear
Brother my head gets screwed on tighter every year

When you leave again, a great fall of snow
The olives on the hills all bowed down low
Half the trees were broken
You carried sixteen tonnes of words unspoken

But you had liked it there, living by the sea
You had liked it in the pale light trees
Sixteen tonnes, skin and bones
Fighting for the octopus all on your own

Rattling away like a hailstorm
You work your way under my skin
My heart bounced 'round like a basketball in a gym

Rattling away like an underground train
You work your way inside my ear
Brother my head gets screwed on tighter every year
Brother my head gets screwed on tighter every year
I said brother my head gets screwed on tighter every year
Brother my head gets screwed on tighter every year
