Big
Bivouac LP/CD
In this ocean I'm a bag of tea.
This is big.
You and yours on us and ours.
This is big.
I make some clouds but they're minor league.
Hack at the base of the largest tree.
Only to find that it doesn't bleed.
The laughing right
stands before me naked, unashamed.
It's for your own good.
It's going to hurt us more than it hurts you.
Don't it make you feel small?
You've got the guns and we've got the scars.
Turn the gun back on yourself.
I love it when you think big.
The laughing right
stands before me naked, unashamed.
It's for your own good.
It's going to hurt us more than it hurts you.
Don't it make you feel small?
Note: Early live versions from 1990 contain different instrumentation
and the following lyrics in the chorus: "I know you can't hear
this right now. I know you almost cared." Blake also screams
"This is big" multiple times over the end of the song.
