Back To Zero

Back To Zero
Jagger/Richards/Leavell

Back to zero
So you wanna blow us all to pieces
Go meet your maker head hung down
And give him all you explanations
Go ahead, throw down
Back to zero
Back to nothing
Straight to meltdown, back to zero
That's where we're heading
It's a monkey living on my back
I can feel my spine begin to crack
I'm looking to the future
I keep on glancing back
I prefer to rot, I don't wanna pop
I think I'll head back to the jungle, alright
Don't wanna see no big bad rumble, too fright
Back to zero
That's where we're going
Back to nothing, right now, right now
No heroes? No more heroes
Back to meltdown
That's where I'm going back to zero
My whole life is hangin' on a thread
I'm the fly inside the spider's web
I'm looking to the future
I keep on glancing back
I prefer to rot, I don't wanna pop
I worry about my great grandchildren
Living ten miles beneath the ground
I worry about their whole existence
The whole damn thing's in doubt
Back to zero, that's where we're going
Back to nothing that's where we're heading
Straight to meltdown, that's where we're going
Back to zero, right now, right now
We're going nowhere
Right now, right now
Back to zero, that's where we're heading
Back to zero
