Big Dipper

Built To Spill

Once

When I was little someone pointed out to me

Some constellations but the big dipper's all I could see

That brontasaurus must have stood a thousand miles high

That brontasaurus laying on its side up in the sky



Bottoms up and this time

Won't you let me be?

Bottled up but this time

Won't you rescue me?

You should have been here last night and heard what the big dipper said to me



Jack thought it twice and thought that that that made it true

Some brains just work that way

that's what chemicals can do

He thought he'd have a beer

he thought he was alone

He thought an Albertson's stir fry dinner would make his apartment a home



Bottoms up and this time

Won't you let me be?

Bottled up but this time

Won't you rescue me?

You should have been here last night and heard what the big dipper said to me



I thought I bored me but I learned to think like you

Now nothing bores me that's that nothing is thought through



Bottoms up and this time

Won't you let me be?

Bottled up but this time

Won't you rescue me?

Thought it out and this time

It's all I can see

You should have been here last night and heard what the big dipper said
