Lyrics Wrecking Ball by Powderfinger

I got to keep my head down, man, she got a temper
When she lets go, it's going to swing like a wrecking ball
I wouldn't recommend that you try to understand
The beginning or the end, it's gonna take cover, one and all

It's a furious game that I don't want to play
The lights are still on, but the folks are away
The tip of a tongue is a dangerous blade

There ain't no way you can keep on trying
To be all things to everyone
You're swallowing the barrel of a loaded gun
There ain't no way you can keep on trying
To be all things to everyone
Everybody got you on the run
Yeah, they got you on the run

I want to take a trip, gonna make a little journey
Gonna travel so far that I can't hear when you call
'Cause I don't want to get stuck in the middle of a rut
Where a thousand little cuts are gonna bleed down upon us all

It's a juvenile way that I don't want to know
Spending half of your life getting set to explode
The one that you're on is a dangerous road

There ain't no way you can keep on trying
To be all things to everyone
You're swallowing the barrel of a loaded gun
There ain't no way you can keep on trying
To be all things to everyone
Everybody got you on the run
They got you on the run

Trying to be all things to everyone
But you're no good to anyone
So take cover, one and all
I'm gonna swing like a wrecking ball
Swing like a wrecking ball
So take cover, one and all
Take cover, one and all
Swing, it's gonna swing
Swing like a wrecking ball

There ain't no way you can keep on trying
To be all things to everyone
You're swallowing the barrel of a loaded gun
There ain't no way you can keep on trying
To be all things to everyone
'Cause everybody got you on the run
They got you on the run

So take cover, one and all
Gonna swing like a wrecking ball
