she come on like a stone but you don't know where from she was thrown like a burning meteor from miles high
looking for a place to land She said have you got yourself some sand And whatever you replied she took as yes
Now she comes after me With her newly planted seeds And soon you're thrown down on your knees And then you dig/you're dead And then before you know the weeds are obesely overgrown With the all the wild seeds she sows in your sleep
you gotta know you'll never let her go she's a lightning bolt lightning bolt lightning bolt
Always something and never nothing isn't that the way we're taught to be, to be flipping through the worn out pages and stages when you knew not who to be until the lightning strike sets you free
you gotta know you'll never let her go She's a lightning bolt lightning bolt lightning bolt
crashing stormy waves erode her shoreline every day until the castle of her ways turns to sand
she holds her love in breast as her birds fall from the nest flying towards the great northwest (yeah, yeah, yeah)
And with no repair in sight there is No God with such might As to open her world wide with subterfuge And your death will soon arrive As she finally decides That all her problems, they won’t die with you
never let her go Shes your lightning bolt never let her go She's true
she's your rock and roll she's a lightning bolt uncontrollable like you
not a huge fan of what I made out of the lyrics at the start. I think the first half is pretty catchy and then mike just plays for like a two minute outro. I expect i'll like this.
Definitely lighter feeling than Mind Your Manners.
Wow, so that's weird. I just arrived from the new album thread, where people are generally crying into their laps about this song, to find that a few here like it.

The second verse is pretty good.
Yeah, there are some interesting pushes and transitions that I didn't notice the first time. I'm gonna listen again, and then I think my wife is bringing me back falafel from town.
Nice jam at the end. Patterns were fine for a little while, but I'm happy to put them behind. Stone is playing a nifty little part underneath Mike that I didn't catch the first few listens.
