I had a friend
He read the gospel
He was all heart
But he could be hostile
We rode our bikes
Over the marble
Spoke of our plans
Delivered the parcel

Shake, shake, shake the 20 ton weight
Get out from under it, get out from under it
Break, break, break the 20 ton weight
Get out from under it

Always be closing
Always be open
Always be poised
Always be poisoned

Shake, shake, shake the 20 ton weight
Get out from under it, get out from under it
Break, break, break the 20 ton weight
Get out from under it
Shake, shake, shake the 20 ton weight
Get out from under it, get out from under it
Break, break, break the 20 ton weight
Get out from under it
