Hands All Over
[Intro]
Ahhhh, ahhhh
Don't touch me!
[Verse 1]
Hands all over the eastern border
You know what, I think we're falling from composure
Hands all over western culture
Ruffling feathers, turning eagles into vultures
Yeah, into vultures
[Chorus]
Got my arms around, baby brother
Put your hands away, you're gonna kill your mother
Gonna kill your mother, kill your mother
And I love her, yeah, and I love her
[Verse 2]
Hands all over the coastal waters
The crew men thank her, then lay down their oily blanket
Hands all over the inland forest
In a striking motion, trees fall down like dying soldiers
Yeah, like dying soldiers
[Chorus]
Got my arms around, baby brother
Put your hands away, you're gonna kill your mother
Gonna kill your mother, kill your mother, no, no
And I love her, yeah, and I love her, and I love her
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 3]
Hands all over the peasant's daughter
She's our bride, she'll never make it out alive
Hands all over words I utter
Change them into things you want to, like balls of clay
[Pre-Chorus]
Put your hands away
Yeah, put your hands away
Put your hands away
[Chorus]
Gonna kill your mother, gonna kill your mother, gonna kill your mother
And I love her, and I love her, yeah, I love her, I love her
(And she loves me)
[Outro]
Yeah
Yeah
Yeah
Yeah
Hey, hey, hey
