R.E.M. - 9-9 lyrics

Your rating:

9-9.

Steady repetition is a compulsion mutually reinforced
Now what does that mean?
Is there a just contradiction?
Nothing much
Now I lay me down to sleep, I pray the Lord my soul to keep
If I should die before I wake, I pray the Lord, hesitate.

Got to punch
Right on target
Twisting tongues
Gotta stripe down his back
All nine yards down her back.

Give me a cup of charm
Give me a cup of love
Pointers turn to lies and conversation fear.

Got to punch
Right on target
Twisting tongues
Gotta stripe down his back
All nine yards down her back.

Give me a cup of charm
Give me a cup of love
Pointers turn to lies and conversation fear. 

What is in my mind? (2x)

Steady repetition is a compulsion mutually reinforced
Now what does that mean?
Is there a just contradiction?
Nothing much
Now I lay me down to sleep, I pray the Lord my soul to keep
If I should die before I wake, oh come on, hesitate, hesitate.

Got to punch
Right on target
Twisting tongues
Gotta stripe down her back
All nine yards down his back.

Give me a cup of charm
Give me a cup of love
Pointers turn to lies and conversation fear. 

Conversation fear (3x).
