[Verse]
D The crawlers cover the Emfloor
In the red ochre Dcorridor
For my second sight of Empeople
They've more lifeblood than beDfore
They're moving in Emtime to a heavy wooden Ddoor
Where the needle's eye is Emwinking, closing in on the poor
[Chorus]
The F#mcarpet crawlers heed their callers:
A We've got to get in to get Gout
A We've got to get in to get Gout
D We've got to get inC to get Emout
[Verse]
D There's only one diEmrection in the faces that I Dsee
It's upward to the Emceiling
Where the chamber's said to Dbe
Like the forest fight for Emsunlight,
That takes root in every Dtree
They are pulled up by the Emmagnet, believing they're free
[Chorus]
The F#mcarpet crawlers heed their callers:
A We've got to get in to get Gout
A We've got to get in to get Gout
D We've got to get inC to get Emout
[Verse]
D Mild mannered supermen are Emheld in kryptonite,
And the Dwise and foolish virgins giggle
With their Embodies glowing bright
DThrough a door a harvest feast is Emlit by candlelight;
It's the Dbottom of a staircase that Emspirals out of sight
[Chorus]
The F#mcarpet crawlers heed their callers:
A We've got to get in to get Gout
A We've got to get in to get Gout
D We've got to get inC to get Emout
[Verse]
D The porcelain manikin with Emshattered skin fears attack
And the Deager pack lift up their pitchers
Em They carry all they lack
The Dliquid has congealed, which has Emseeped out through the crack,
D | Em |
And the tickler takes his stickleback
[Chorus]
The F#mcarpet crawlers heed their callers:
A We've got to get in to get Gout
A We've got to get in to get Gout
D We've got to get inC to get Emout
[Interlude]
We've Dgot to get out, we've Emgot to get in to get out
We've Dgot to get out, we've Emgot to get in to get out
We've Dgot to get out, we've Emgot to get in to get out
We've Dgot to get out, we've Emgot to get in to get out
[Chorus]
The F#mcarpet crawlers heed their callers:
A We've got to get in to get Gout
A We've got to get in to get Gout
D We've got to get inC to get Emout D
