lyrics

Bones and feathers
buried in the mud
Making fossils
diamonds and dust
Everything seems so valuable now
Everything seems important

Bones and feathers
buried in the mud
Boxes with bows
and birthday cards
Brand new paint
and tarnished silver:
everything seems important.

Work real hard and you'll get somewhere
'cuz the world's as round as the world is fair
One day we'll all be standing there
on a pile of bones and feathers

Keep your memories
close to your chest
They're all you got,
they ain't the worst or best
But they're one of a kind, and don't they remind you:
everything's damned important.

So don't forget your passport when you go
You're gonna need some ID to show
that you're still who you said you always were:
a pile of important bones

Coins and bodies,
mistakes and lies
Roots and rot
and god knows what
And every little other thing the ground has got
Everything's damned important

Work real hard and you'll get somewhere
'cuz the world's as round as the world is fair
One day we'll all be dancing there
on a pile of bones and feathers
