Big Thief - Spud Infinity lyrics

[Chorus] What's it gonna take What's it gonna take To free, the celestial bodies [Verse 1] From way down here it looks so small From up there it looks so small One peculiar organism, aren't we all together Everybody steps on ants Everybody eats the plants Everybody knows to dance even with just one finger [Chorus] What's it gonna take What's it gonna take To free, the celestial bodies [Verse 2] When I took another look The past was not a history book That was just my linear perception Ash to ask and dust to dusk Dime a dozen, aren't we just And a dozen dimes will buy a crust of garlic bread [Chorus] What's it gonna take What's it gonna take To free, the celestial bodies [Bridge] When I say celestial I mean extra-terrestrial I mean accepting the alien you've rejected in your own heart When I say heart I mean finished The last one there is a potato Knish Baking too long in the sun of spud infinity When I say infinity I mean now Kiss the one you are right now Kiss your body up and down other than your elbows 'Cuz as for your elbows they're on their own Wandering like a rolling stone Rubbing up against the edges of experience [Chorus] What's it gonna take What's it gonna take What's it gonna take What's it gonna take To free, the celestial bodies
