LEAKING

First released 1989

Leaking was first played in 1985 and then disappeared from setlists before it was resurrected as part of the band's plan to record previously unavailable older tracks for the One Man Clapping live album.  The released version includes significant amounts of improvisation, which prompted Tim at the time to promise the audience an extra song to make up for it.

WHERE TO GET

LYRICS

I'm leaking down the left side

Oh god no, I hope it doesn't show

But somebody's getting an outpour

The emperor's new clothes.

I'm leaking down the left side

No one can see 

My gall bladder's burst and so has my spleen.

 

Leg and an arm then a leg and a arm...

 

I'm leaking down the left side

Oh God no, I hope it doesn't show.

I'm so wound up my bowels just want to flow.

I hope you don't think I'm a jerk

Nothing I do ever seems to work.

My timing of that joke was wrong.

You can't call that a dance or this a song.

You can't call this a song.

You can't call this a song.

You can't call this a song.

 

Smiled my way through this attack.

Hope no one sees through my act.

All those people staring at me.

Their piercing gazes make me want to scream.

What do you want from me?

What do you want from me?

What do you want from me?

 

Leg and an arm then a leg and an arm...

 

Oh, fill my holy hole

Oh, fill my holy hole

Oh, fill my holes.

Oh, fill my holes.

Oh, fill my holes.

Oh, fill my holes.

Feel my holes.

Feel my holes.

I couldn't plug my holy holes.

I couldn't plug my holes.

I couldn't plug my holy holes.
