Crawl Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

We went a walkin' out in the sun
We got to talkin' havin' some fun

Refrain ~
Sure feels right
Sure feels good
Get to go a little crazy
It's understood

We went a drivin' out in the rain
Old folks arrivin' lookin' the same

Refrain

Chorus ~
Run to ground
Inch by inch
Pound by pound
And pinch by pinch
Piece by piece
It's all the same
Well two can play
At that game

Hearing the phone ring waiting to answer
Call up an actress speak to a dancer

Refrain

Chorus

Watching them windsurf watching them capsize
We hear you talking we hear you tell lies
We're getting younger we're getting older
Now were taking the jacket hanging the bowler

Refrain

Run to ground
Inch by inch
Pound by pound
And pinch by pinch
Piece by piece
It's all the same
Well two can play
Tease me once

Run to ground
Inch by inch
Pound by pound
And pinch by pinch
Piece by piece
It's all the same
Well two can play
Tease me twice





Chorus
