We were shooting at a mountain of dirt
Well nothing was broken, nothing was hurt
But I probably really should've been at work
But if my free time's gone would you promise me this
That you would please bury me with it
Please bury me with it
Well the suit got tight and it split at the seams
But I kept it out of habit, I kept it real clean
But if it's getting faded, if it's running out of thread
Could you do this for me my friend, and please just
Please bury me with it
Please bury me with it
Please bury me with it
Please bury me with it
Well we move to the left and we move to the right
And sure as hell we stayed out almost every single night
But if the party is over, if the fun has to end
Could you do this for me my friend, would you just
Please bury me with it
Please bury me with it
Please bury me with it
Please bury me with it
Good news for people who love bad news
We've lost the plot and we just can't choose
We are hummingbirds who are just not willing to move
And there's good news for people who love bad news
We are hummingbirds who lost the plot and we will not move
We are good news for anyone who loves bad news

We were aiming for the moon, we were shooting at the stars
But the kids were just shooting at the buses and the cars
So don't drink the water, don't you breathe the air
And if it's gotten to that point then I have to declare
That you could please bury me with it
Please bury me with it
Well fast they come and fast they go
And God I love that rock and roll
Well the point was fast but it was too blunt to miss
Life handed us a paycheck, we said "We worked harder than this"
Please bury me with it
Please bury me with it
Please
Please bury me with it

We are hummingbirds who are just not willing to move
And there's good news for people who love bad news
We are hummingbirds who lost the plot and we will not move
We are good news for anyone who loves bad news
