The Faint - Fulcrum and Lever
@ @
I heard a bone snap
When I was only about 9
The laws of gravitation
Were in advance a while
But not long before they taught me a lesson
In tough skin jeans like a Japanese Hessian
I was 70 pounds
Learning to fly
I knew I couldn't do if I didn't try
We called it "the field"
Where we used to hang out
A field of alfalfa in the back of a house
With a slice of an old oak tree
And a twelve-foot plank
Put the board on top
We got a flying machine!
Oh my god! We can teeter on this!
Or make a lever that can shoot me
Into orbit and space!
I've seen the circus
I know how they do it
With bent knees
You got to jump
Like you would from a trampoline
We got up a ladder
And the heaviest kid (5)
He would climb up top (4)
And count down like a (3) rocket ship
To (2) fly me up
He'd get to (1) T-minus zero
(0) Before he jumped
And I was shot high in a vertical catapult
Straight up and down
I remember the view
From over top of the house
Gravity seems weak
Until you look down
I got in position
I hadn't echoed the form
If the judges were present
They'd be holding up score cards
Of 9's and 10's
I must've lost a couple points
For the landing I did
I heard a loud snap
But it didn't hurt
