Somehow, I feel much older now The sweat caught in my mouth has lost its salt Slow down, it's time to spit it out And if the fates allow, to sing their song When the sun is strong, when the land is dry When the dance don't work, when the crops all die When the sun is strong, man, lean into it I feel a rod caught in the wheel An arrow in my heel; something's wrong But at last, I've been tied to the mast So as the ship goes past, I sing along When the sun is strong, when the land is dry When the dance don't work, when the crops all die When the sun is strong, man, lean into it When the rain comes down, when the wood won't take When the lights go out and the thunder breaks When the rain comes down, man, lean into it When the sun is strong, when the land is dry When the dance don't work, when the crops all die When the sun is strong, man, lean in When the rain comes down, when the wood won't take When the lights go out and the thunder breaks When the rain comes down, man, lean in When the sky gets dark, when the moon is blood When your monkey heart beats an ancient drum When the sky gets dark, man, lean in When the trumpets sound, when the curtain's torn When the walls come down and the lions roar When the trumpets sound, man, lean into it Lean into it Lean into it
