R.E.M. lyrics : "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 couple,
Don't give me a couple of 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 couple,

Don't give me a couple of pointers,
Turn to lies and conversation fear


What is in my mind?
What is in my mind?


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 couple,

Don't give me a couple of pointers,
Turn to lies and conversation fear


Conversation fear.
Conversation fear.
Conversation fear.
