Lyrics

[Verse 1]
"Hello," he smiled and reached out his hand
"Your troubles," he said, "I can understand"
Ignored by all those pretty-looking people in suits
In a bar on 10th Street I drank, he induced
"Hey, aren't you sick of the way they look down at you?
It's time you and I collect our dues
There's a man who's worth more than a country could make
And if you help me with the job, I'll give you half the take"
[Chorus]
Well, should I do it?
It's so tempting and I've got nothing to lose
If I had something, yeah, they would just take that too
So okay, yeah, I'll do it
[Verse 2]
Smiley's big plan, he's a driver for that man
The third story window on the left, the lock was jammed
It opened, no joke, just like he had planned
So we walked downstairs with bags in our hand
There was crystal, lace, vulgar paintings too
And a silver horse that looked right at you
And in the bedroom, no one sleeping there
Just a big empty bed, covered in fur
Crept our way to the cellar door
Once he'd seen the man kept gold there before
He told me, "Open it up, let's see where it lies"
But when I did, he smiled then kicked me inside
Locked in the cellar, taken for a ride
[Chorus]
Well, I did it
Feet in the air, then I hit the ground
Seems like these stairs are only good for falling down
Well, I did it, I did it
[Bridge]
What you gonna do when the money's gone and everyone you know is dead?
When you're standing naked on the lawn, you think about the life you led
The rain stopped falling and your garden choked and your last guitar just broke
But I found the words on the wall, I read them, it said
"Get along
Get along
Get along, little dog, get along"
[Bridge]
Silver horse in your house is dancing all around your bed
When you tell that thing to leave, it kicks you upside the head
Yeah, you left me here, but I love you, and I'm doing fine on my own
I take a drink from behind the door and I sing my favorite song
"Get along
Get along
Get along, little dog, get along
Get along
Get along
Get along, little dog, get along"
[Bridge]
I'm the one that's smiling there, I paint it up on the wall
Me and my animal
In a thousand years, they'll find me here in my fantastic tomb
Fantastic tomb
Come on, sing it
[Outro]
Get along
Get along
Get along, little dog, get along
Get along
Get along
Get along, little dog, get along, yeah
