Lyrics

Pennywheels

[Verse 1]

You know

What it feels like

To be naked

To be ground by

[Chorus]

Giant pennywheels, yeah

Giant pennywheels

Giant pennywheels, yeah

Giant pennywheels

[Post-Chorus]

I dream, yeah

I dream, yeah

I dream, yeah

I dream, yeah

I dream

[Verse 2]

No one, yeah

There's no one

That can't hear

All the sounds like

[Chorus]

Giant pennywheels, yeah

Giant pennywheels

Giant pennywheels, yeah

Giant pennywheels

[Post-Chorus]

I dream, yeah

I dream, yeah

I dream, yeah

I dream, yeah

I dream

[Bridge]

Giant copper crushing me

I watch the wheels roll in your eyes

Pick one up, I think it's junk

I'm ready and I'm willing, I'll subscribe

I'm naked and I'm naked and I'm wasted

I'm naked and I'm naked and I'm wasted

Yeah

[Guitar Solo]

[Outro]

You know

What it feels like

To be naked

To be ground
