Does It Float Lyrics

Dinosaur Jr.

The rain has washed my dog with fear
A question people think, I call a friend
And the next wave is valentine
See yourself call, no big deal
Ever since thats not a fear
Wishin, the lamp would shine
And beam me at it, give me some fuel
Find a way, to clog it up alone
Terrified, the way you stand
Feeling natural behind the phone
Rain has fallen, the tree does cry
And ? [mumbling...]
And the toads are running free
And ? [mumbling...]
Its no fun to thats what stinks
Bought a carrot and still cant see
You know Ive been wating for 6 years
For a ray of hope, leaves me a float
Then I could believe in sunshine
In the winter time, mountains glow
Theres always so much to adore
Theres a little scenic picture on my skull
See the second building
Imagine, whered you go
All I wanna know baby
Does it float
Does it float
Does it float
Does it float
Does it float
Does it float
Does it float
Does it
Float
Does it
Float
Does
Float
Why
Does it float
Does it float
