R.E.M. - Fables Of The Reconstruction

Can't Get There from Here

When the world is a monster.
Bad to swallow you whole.
Kick the clay that holds the teeth in
Throw your trolls out the door
If you're needing inspiration
Philomath is where I go by dawn
Lawyer Jeff he knows the lowdown
He's mighty bad to visit home

I've been there I know the way Can't get there from here
I've been there I know the way Can't get there from here
I've been there I know the way Can't get there from here
I've been there I know the way

When your hands are feeling empty
Stick head jumpin' off the ground, 'round
Tris is sure to shirr the deers out
Brother Ray can sing my song

I've been there I know the way Can't get there from here
I've been there I know the way Can't get there from here
I've been there I know the way Can't get there from here
I've been there I know the way Hands down, Calechee bound

Landlocked kiss the ground
Dirt of seven continents going round and round
Go on ahead Mr. Citywide hypnotized, suit and tied
Gentlemen, testify
If your world is a monster
Bad to swallow you whole
Philomath they know the lowdown
Throw your trolls out the door

I've been there I know the way Can't get there from here
I've been there I know the way Can't get there from here
I've been there I know the way Can't get there from here
I've been there I know the way Can't get there from here

I've been there I know the way Can't get there from here
I've been there I know the way Can't get there from here
I've been there I know the way Can't get there from here
I've been there I know the way. Thank you, Ray.
