R.E.M. Horse To Water Lyrics

I could have kept my head down
I might have kept my mouth shut
I should have held my own,
You lead a horse to water and you watch him drown.

You're only as big as your battles.
Rattle my cage with your shadow.
I'm a bantamweight with a mouth full of feathers,
Don't you know that what comes around goes around?

I'm not that easy,
I am not your horse to water.
I hold my breath I come around, round, round.

Don't darken my doorstep again,
You're mixing up lemonade gin-gin,
You're mixing up lose with win/win,
You lead a horse to water and you watch him drown.

You stumble on glass top table,
Divas chewing chalk on cable
Humvee up a beanstalk fable
I don't call this entertainment
'cause Humpty's falling down.

I'm not that easy,
I am not your horse to water.
I hold my breath I come around, round, round.

Pick a fight launch a buzzy bar brawl
Friday night f___ or fight a pub crawl
Bantamweight with a mouth full of feathers,
Don't you know that what comes around goes around?

I'm not that easy,
I am not your horse to water.
I hold my breath I come around, round, round.

It's not that easy
I am not your horse to water
I hold my breath, I come around, round, round
It's going down, down, down
This run around, round, round
Is bound to pound the daylights out of you!
