They Might Be Giants - 9 Secret Steps lyrics

Throw away the thing that tells you Not to throw the thing away You'll forget to rue the day You went ahead and threw the thing away Nine secret steps To the key to the door that you'll Throw in the well and let go Of all your thwarted dreams And visions of success Amputate the thought that says You shouldn't ever amputate a thought You'll be overwrought until You go ahead and amputate the thought Nine secret steps To unlock the potential To forgo the knowledge sponsored links Of what can be attained as long As nothing's ever gained I can't tell you what's in secret step five You will know when you're no longer alive Inhume your gloom within a tomb Confine your mind behind a line There's only doom outside your room Confine your mind behind a line Nine secret steps To the key to the door that you'll Throw in the well and let go Of all your thwarted dreams Let go of all your thwarted dreams Let go of all your thwarted dreams Of all your thwarted dreams
