Shake Yer Head Lyrics


Eraserheads Shake Yer Head


I was born, upside down
I felt my grandma put my feet on the ground
They put a spoon, in my mouth
And everyone was shocked
To hear me shout
Well I knew I couldn’t take
All the dog food that they make
I’d just as soon as put myself on a stake and burn

Refrain:
I saw it comin’ around
I saw it comin’ around, yeah
I saw it comin’ around
So I just, yeah
Shook my head and walked away

I grew up, in a town
Where everybody tried to push me around
The girls were alright, but the guys were tough
They’re always buggin’ me with macho stuff
Well, I ain’t no stupid fighter,
I go for flower power
I’ve been running every race
Just to save my face, yeah

Refrain:
I saw it comin’ around
I saw it comin’ around, yeah
I saw it comin’ around
So I just, yeah
Shook my head and walked away

Bridge:
Well, they try to see if you care
It’s just a matter of not begging for more
You know it’s really suicidal to just give in
With people you can never really be sure– O-hoh
When it gets down to this
They’ll eat you up
When the words get in your head
They’ll get you up
It’s a saving grace to have enough
When you find yourself in a compromising spot
You should know, you shouldn’t take
All that dog food that they make
You’d just as soon as put yourself on a stake and burn

Refrain 2:
You’ll see it comin’ around,
You’ll see it coming, comin’ around,
When you see it coming around, you just, yeah
Shake yer head and walk away, yeah!
Alright! Shake, shake, shake,
Shake yer head;(2x)
Yes, the one you think with.. Ho—ohh c’mon, c’mon
