Lyrics to Rule #44 - Badger
This badger clinging on my back
Is the strangest coach I've ever had
It simply will not let me be
Sulking in a misery
When I try to say the world is pretty unfair
He whispers in my ear, "I wouldn't go there"
He simply will not let me be
Sulking in a misery
See, in the ring, you'll find
It's the fight for your life
A choice to make a fist
Or lay down on the side
Lines either in or down (Or down)
Your bell will make its sound (Ahh!)
With a limit on the time
To decide
(Hahahahah!)
His claws are digging in my back
Using thoughts I wish I never had
It simply will not lеt me be
Buried by thе misery
When I wanna be alone to cover my head
To hide inside the blanket of a warm bed
He simply will not let me be (Let me be)
Buried by the misery
See, in the ring, you'll find
It's the fight for your life
A choice to make a fist
Or lay down on the side
Lines either in or down (Either in or down)
Your bell will make its sound (Bell will make its sound)
With a limit on the time (With a limit on the time)
To decide
See, bristles scratchin' in my shirt (On my shirt)
Has kept me from lying in the dirt
An itch that never seems to leave (Never leaves)
Distracts me from the misery
He's keeping me from sinking in the dark clouds
The height that I would fall would break my legs now
He simply will not let me be
Soaking in a misery
See, in the ring, you'll find
It's the fight for your life
A choice to make a fist
Or lay down on the side
Lines either in or down (Or down)
Your bell will make its sound (Whoo!)
With a limit on the time
To decide
This badger hanging on my back
Never lends me any slack
He simply will not let me rub (He won't)
The hands of the misery I love
When I wanna be a burden to my own soul
He reminds me of my youth or when I had goals
He simply will not let me be (Let me be)
Caged inside a misery
See, in the ring, you'll find
It's the fight for your life
A choice to make a fist
Or lay down on the side
Lines either in or down (Or down)
Your bell will make its sound (It'll make it)
With a limit on the time (With a limit on the time)
To decide
Yeah, but whatever
Is the strangest coach I've ever had
It simply will not let me be
Sulking in a misery
When I try to say the world is pretty unfair
He whispers in my ear, "I wouldn't go there"
He simply will not let me be
Sulking in a misery
See, in the ring, you'll find
It's the fight for your life
A choice to make a fist
Or lay down on the side
Lines either in or down (Or down)
Your bell will make its sound (Ahh!)
With a limit on the time
To decide
(Hahahahah!)
His claws are digging in my back
Using thoughts I wish I never had
It simply will not lеt me be
Buried by thе misery
When I wanna be alone to cover my head
To hide inside the blanket of a warm bed
He simply will not let me be (Let me be)
Buried by the misery
See, in the ring, you'll find
It's the fight for your life
A choice to make a fist
Or lay down on the side
Lines either in or down (Either in or down)
Your bell will make its sound (Bell will make its sound)
