Modest Mouse - Ansel Lyrics




I took a train down through Mexico
With my father and brother Ansel
You can't know
Well, you can't ever really know
Would you really want to know
How the hell would you know

I made a mess of myself and the trip on the whole
My father's good patience with me, why I don't know
You can't know
You can't ever really know
That's the last time I had seen my brother Ansel

Troubles on the head winds
Troubles on the tail winds
Troubles on the head winds
Troubles on the tail winds

Oh, oh oh oh
Oh, oh oh
Oh, oh oh, oh

Me and my sister we hung on the phone
Watching the news
As they looked for Ansel
On top of that mountain
And underneath the snow
They had dogs that were sniffing
I guess you'll never know

You can't know
You can't ever really know
Would you really want to know
How the hell would you know

You can't know
You can't ever really know
Would you really want to know
How the hell would you know

The last time that you ever see another soul
No, you never get to know
No, you don't know
