Music Appreciation: Clutch - Nickel Dime.
Yeah, yeah, another Clutch song. What can I say, I'm enraptured.
Clutch - Nickel Dime
Another Clutch outtake. This one's about colonization. Endless, persistant, unstoppable colonization, and its inevitable progression starside. Or, to borrow a line from another Clutch song, "evolution's finest hour."
Nickel 'n' dime. Bit by bit. Moonbases and rovers. We may not live to see it, but we know it's coming. Not bad for a mob of brainy monkeys that dropped out of the trees a few million years ago, am I right?
Okay sound quality, lyrics under the cut. Have fun.
They landed in Manhattan
With rifles and hatchets
Stinking like the living dead
Eatin' local fauna
Like there wasn't a tomorrow
As it bled, how they fed, how they fed
Sacagawea is gettin' meaner
Nickel dime, nickel dime, nickel dime
It's such a long road that we travel
Nickel dime, nickel dime
Causin' more commotion
With that steam locomotion
On a quiet country mile
Blisters by the fistfuls
'Til the foreman blows the whistle
And drinkin' whiskey all the while
Sacagawea is gettin' meaner
Nickel dime, nickel dime, nickel dime
It's such a long road that we travel
Nickel dime, nickel dime
Get up on the chuck wagon
If your feet are draggin'
Well they landed on Europa
And it's colder than Dakota
But they took the bull by the horns
For the frozen ocean
Foreman has himself the notion
"This ain't nothing we ain't done before!"
Sacagawea is gettin' meaner
Nickel dime, nickel dime, nickel dime
It's such a long road that we travel
Nickel dime, nickel dime, nickel dime
Sacagawea is gettin' meaner
Nickel dime, nickel dime, nickel dime
It's such a long road that we travel
Nickel dime, nickel dime
