Built To Spill — Randy Described Eternity lyrics

Lyrics

Every thousand years
This metal sphere
Ten times the size of Jupiter
Flies just a few yards past the Earth
You climb on your roof
And take a swipe at it With a single feather
And you do it once every thousand years
Until you’ve worn it down
To the size of a pea
Yeah, I’d say that’s a long time
But it’s only half a blink in the place we’re going to be Where you going to be?
Where will you spend eternity?
I’m going to be perfect from now on
I’m going to be perfect starting now
Stop making that sound, stop making that sound
I will say I forgot it But it was only yesterday
And that’s all you had to say
