Metal Man

The Breeders

I don't know how old I was

But it was a '65 pickup

I was lying on the ground

With flat iron bars over my head



One silver drop is all you need

To put a hole in your head at 2000 degrees

That's right man, you be the Metal Man

At 2000 degrees



That's hot

that's hot



And over my head the hot wire was sparking

I got something down on my chest

And it began to bubble



I was repairing my three on a tree

When a drip dropped down on me

That's right man, I'm the Metal Man

At 2000 degrees



That's hot

and a woman. What they are saying is anyone's guess!)
