Eels - Rusty Pipes Lyrics






Rattle on the rusty pipes
Hit 'em hard, and hit 'em bright and clear
And make a noise, so everyone cannot mistake it's you
And let 'em know just what it's like
When you're not alright

Pray to god it won't get worse
That you'll be riding in a hearse to this
The party that you don't want to be ever invited to
But you'll be goin' anyway
However much you pray

Define a way, you'll find a way
No matter what I say

Rattle on the rusty pipes
Wake 'em up, give them a fright
They can't just shake off like a scary dream
They have most every night
Don't even try, I can't be saved
I'm beautiful and brave

    ***LYRICS***

    Rattle on the rusty pipes
    Hit 'em hard, and hit 'em bright and clear
    And make a noise, so everyone cannot mistake it's you

    And let 'em know just what it's like
    When you're not alright

    Pray to god it won't get worse
    That you'll be riding in a hearse to this
    The party that you don't want to be ever invited to

    But you'll be goin' anyway
    However much you pray

    Define a way, you'll find a way
    No matter what I say

    Rattle on the rusty pipes
    Wake 'em up give them a fright
    They can't just shake off like a scary dream
    They have most every night

    Don't even try I can't be saved
    I'm beautiful and brave

  60. W.... S....

    Love the video, love the song, and always appreciate the dark, kind of melancholic humor. These guys released their first album 22 yrs. ago, and are still going strong. Love you, E! <3

  61. T.... ....
