Bell Swamp Connection The Mountain Goats

[Verse 1]
Toward the tail-end of the age that's almost finished
Where the highway starts to crack and nobody fixes it
I was wandering through an undeveloped tract
Out near the ocean

100 acres, we will build to suit
See what there is to see before it's gone
Somebody's always just about to put some kind of
Awful plan in motion

[Verse 2]
Eastern red cedars, and the pines
And suddenly an elevated stone slab
In what must have been a clearing once
Try to recognize the signals and the signposts
My curiosity
Will likely always get the best of me

[Pre-Chorus]
It's like that one thing
My dad kept trying to tell me
As the twilight
Inched its way on up his body

[Chorus]
Get out
Get out
Get out
Get out
