R.e.m. Cant Get There From Here

(Berry/Buck/Mills/Stipe)







When the world is a monster

Bad to swallow you whole

Kick the clay that holds the teeth in

Throw your trolls out the door



If youre needing inspiration

Philomath is where I go, I go

Lawyer Jeff he knows the low-down

Hes mighty bad to visit home



(chorus)

(Ive been there I know the way)

Cant get there from here

(Ive been there I know the way)

Cant get there from here

(Ive been there I know the way)

Cant get there from here

(Ive been there I know the way)



When your hands are feeling empty

Stickheads jumping off the ground

Tris is sure to shirr the deers out

Brother Ray can sing my song



(Ive been there I know the way)

Cant get there from here

(Ive been there I know the way)

Cant get there from here

(Ive been there I know the way)

Cant get there from here, here, here

(Ive been there I know the way)



Hands down, Calechee bound

Land locked, kiss the ground

The dirt of seven continents going

Round and round

Go on ahead Mr. Citywide

Hypnotize, suit and tie

Gentlemen testify



If your world is a monster

Bad to swallow you whole

Philomath they know the low-down

Throw your trolls out the door



(repeat chorus 2x)



Cant get there from here

(Ive been there I know the way)



(Thank you, Ray)
