Lyrics
Follow the trail to the twisted root
Stand in a bucket of rain
File down your teeth with a limestone rock
Sit on the weathervane
Do you know what it means?
Do you know what it means?
Scaling the walls with the Goolong 5
Ripping out the sheets from the bed
Mercy is only a five letter word
Let's see how it sounds when you're dead
Do you know what it means?
Do you know what it means?
Chorus:
Driving a stake in the cold hard ground
Do you know what it means?
Everyone's a little bit heavy tonight
Let's watch as the mercury falls
Stick-eye Stan and the Salamander Man
Are licking their wounds in the hall
Do you know what it means?
Do you know what it means?
Chorus
Bridge:
Now you're all by yourself at the top of the hill
You're drenched to the bone and you're spent
You've come all the way from Rivington in the rain
Just to straddle an electric fence
Do you know what it means?
You've bottled the news of the missing link
You're tapping your foot to the tune
You carried her all the way back to the street
Now she wants to go up to your room
Do you know what it means?
Do you know what it means?
Chorus
