pleasure is melting like chocolate

my blue ribbon gumption is gone

all my gravy must have soaked into something

and the world...

the filthy steps, the cold concrete

the phony earth below my feet

the ancient odour of the street

yes the world, world, world it is a sponge

yes the world, world, world, world, world it is a sponge

and when the crisis passes

when the coast is clear

I'll be buffed down to a liquid

and the world, world, world it is a sponge

yes the world, world, world, world, world it is a sponge

yes the world, world, world, world, world it is a sponge

throughout this entire ugly outing

I've been mumbling the convex of what I should be shouting

but I'll soon be silent you'll soon hear nothing

'cause the world, world it is a sponge

the world, world, world, world, world it is a sponge

the world, world, world, world, world it is a sponge

What a sad song. Dark, but beautiful. I have both this version and REM's in my REM playlist. Thanks for the upload!

Vic was a beautiful soul I hope he is very happy now. The world is a sponge it has drained all my energy. Therefore, I will fight back.

I came home from work yesterday humming this song, and learned that Vic died today. It's too bad, the silence he said we'd hear from him is now upon us.
