Lyrics:
We greased all the ropes
We'll throw you a line
We're gonna break these boulders
We're gonna pull things out
We greased all the ropes
We'll throw you a line
We're gonna break these boulders
We're gonna travel time
#ModestMouse #TheGroundWalkswithTimeinaBox #OfficialAudio
I just realized this one of the most underrated songs by one of our favorite bands
Totally agree. Unbelievable that this didn't get WAY more attention. I'll keep giving it mine.
Seriously! Been listening to them for yearssss and didn’t realize how fire this one was until about 2 years ago
One of my favs. Highly underrated!
I legit found it today. Modest Mouse never fails to amaze me
how the hell does this song not get more recognition? this is absolutely brilliant! stumbled on to it, during a random smoke session, and am feeling the vibe this song gives off.
I have played this on repeat, numerous times.
Not a dancer but every time I hear this I bounce around like an idiot
This is my favorite of this album
Just heard it live tonight! was a game changer! saw them two nights in a row! setlists were PERFECT!!! Big hits mostly first time and Deeper "true fan" stufff tonight!!!
We will probably never ever get there. So I think he is saying we will never get to another planet were we can live. It's truly a brilliant song in every way.
I love how Isaac Brock is able to put peculiarly deep concepts into such an accessible vehicle of extremely enjoyable tunes. The video helps to interpret the lyrics and idea of the song, absolutely loved it. Thank you Modest Mouse! You really do need more recognition for your lyrical ability. He's genius.
If your a modest mouse fan, you know this type of music video is a normal thing to see in Isaac Brock's mind
Hell yeah
The dude is weird as fuck and I love him for it lol.. absolutely love this band .. just saw them last week
You know his name Wow
You're
Yes
I swear this is one of the best modest mouse songs ever especially musically. The percussion alone is so amazing one you can finally make all of it out.
I want to watch Isaac acting in a movie. I think he could be a great actor
@PariSitic Pictures talk talk? no? ok
Modest Mouse = superb! x
EVERYTHING ABOUT THIS MUSIC VIDEO MAKES ME FEEL UNSETTLED...Yet, I'm addicted to it. Great job, MM.
Thats his style...bittersweet
by far the most unique band I've ever encountered... from bringing me tears to the biggest laughs and hopes... (little motel) this song , and float on
Just listening to the words that spill out of Isaac Brock bring me chills. Phrases like "you wasted life why wouldn't you waste death" to "happfuckingcongratulations" "shaved off my eyebrows and they fall to the ground so can't look surprised right now" "my thoughts are so loud i couldn't hear my mouth".... the list of thought provoking lyrics is endless. This song is so full of interesting ideas.
Isaac Brock's audition tape for Game of Thrones
Drew Trevaskus lmao
broooo yessss! xD lol
Would be funny lmao
he knew who john was
omfg hahahahah
So grateful for Modest Mouse's focus on the environment and mycology these past few years. So vital!
I love Isaac's face after he says "I think it really wants out", right after he moves the knife mic away from his face. Lol
He has one of the most iconic voices of his generation.
Ever heard of Lucid Rivers?
I feel like this song is my entire morning commute, captured in one dulcet melody.
HE IS LITERALLY A KING
LAAAAAAAANA I AM LITTERALLY DIE.
The effect they're using for the woman singing the chorus is perfect. It really captures the essence of something or someone projecting directly in your mind. So good and trippy!
[Verse 1]
Open up a window
All the air, oh, the air is falling out
Eyes vacuum up light
Sound gets trapped by the mouth
We'll deal with the remainder
When the dents, the dents get hammered out
Then we'll travel through time
The world's an inventor
With its work crawling, running, squirming 'round
Trees drop colorful fruits
Directly into our mouths
The world's an inventor
We're the dirtiest thing it's thought about
And we really don't mind
We're gonna throw a party
All the ghosts of trees are coming out
Don't move in any direction
Wait until the light's inside of the cloud
You're gonna wanna see this
Don't bring your camera around
Watch sun and sawdust align
[Chorus]
We greased all the ropes
We'll throw you a line
We're gonna break these boulders
We're gonna pull things out
[Verse 2]
We'll probably never get there
Bring your sight seers school teachers down
It's a watercolor weekend
All the trees are turning colors now
We'll probably never get there
Bring your candy taster, time wasters around
And we'll mess with their minds
The world composes
With his shirttails wrinkled, hanging out
Bang us together
See what sort of sounds we make right now
The world plays music
Playing skin on teeth inside of the mouth
What sort of sounds?
What lovely sounds come about?
[Chorus]
We greased all the ropes
We'll throw you a line
We're gonna break these boulders
We're gonna pull things out
We greased all the ropes
We'll throw you a line
We're gonna break these boulders
We're gonna travel time
[Verse 3]
Close up a window
All the air, all the air is falling out
Eyes vacuum up light
Sound gets trapped by the mouth
Our predecessor left this box
And something's clawing around
I think it really wants out
[Chorus]
We greased all the ropes
We'll throw you a line
We're gonna break these boulders
We're gonna pull things out
We greased all the ropes
We'll throw you a line
We're gonna break these boulders
We're gonna travel time
I used those same words when I was a kid in an argument with my mom and she got me and I said finally!
This band is so ahead of their time..
my favorite song of theirs is... the ocean breaths salty. highly recommend it!
Whales love the ocean.
This is about how we fight over power. They are in a junk yard and are still fighting even over trash and killing one another.
I want whatever he is having in his coffee
I think they're drugs
gtfomenow
weed and alcohol my friend.
although I think he said he's been sober for a few years now.
Oh Isaac, how I love you. Had a horrible day, and watch this and I'm grinning like a chesire cat.
:☆
yeah this music video is amazing, love the song too
Ugly Casanova wait are you the real ugly Casanova?
+Edgy Fandoms M8 if that's the name I'd assume everybody is as that is their name.
That would be me: )
pure majestic bliss!! I wish my band could play music like this one day!!!
There is a deep meaning to this video, I can just feel it in my bones.
Stop reading this, go find the album version of this song. You don't need to watch the music video, you need to hear the breakdown, the whole 6-7 minute song. There's an entire half a song missing here. Bad job Sony.
+sixstringedwithabowl Yep, and the longer version is way better. The intro and the ending were the best part of this song. No clue why they cut them out here.
Could you imagine how lame the Guns N Roses song NOVEMBER RAIN would sound if they cut out the intro?
Wtfffff thank you!
Theirs a really good live version of this as well
Probably makes sense for a music video, I mean can't imagine what they would have filled those missing minutes with. This seems pretty extravagant and expensive for them already, haha. The intro and outro are really cool though, you're right.
I agree to that. This song is amazing!
Float on is what got me started but would be the last modern mouse sound id ever play
I'm in love with the music videos that they're making for this album
lovely sounds and self's own feast..well those days will be over..
Im going to my second modest mouse concert July third and i am so pumped!!!!!!!!
Did you have fun? I have never got to see them sadly. 😔
Yea, I wanna know also if you had fun? Did you take some lsd?
Ehren from Jackass appearing is awesome. Honestly you should bring him back for all other music videos. The guy is very talented.
This is amazing to see how quickly this band can change a bad day into a fucking one
Modest mouse is one of the few things worth being alive these days for. Keep up the Great work!
Hope all is well
I'm an old guy, and I appreciate that he is kind of in a Frank Zappa world - crazy but super talented and articulate.
Another Quality Video. Modest Mouse never cease to fail us. Much love for this band.
Man, this is nothing like the music video I had in my head for this...
Such a great song man. Damn hard to believe it's been this long since it came out.
This was your favorite modest mouse song, when we met it was your favorite song. I think I hear your voice every time i listen to it.. I'd almost forgotten what it sounds like.
I miss you.
Rest in peace my friend
This comment is about a good friend of mine who committed suicide. And a form of cathartic release. Not about the band.
@@Feyflyer sorry I didn't read your comment all the way through
i love how Danger Ehren is just in this for no reason
Isaac needed someone to wrassle
Is that him really?
I really love how much Modest Mouse means to me. Seen em live at the Blue note quite a few years ago. Nothing but love.
I would love to crawl around inside Isaac's brain and see how he comes up with this awesome stuff :) Love him so much.
I love this band and I wish golden carpet for these guys.
Zach got that dad bod on fleek
Perfect lyrical sound. What lovely sounds come about.
I don't know why I love this music video so much, but I do.
One of your best albums yet, I love every song, keep up the good work.
I didn't know Isaac Brock was packin a big ole package
35 years old, was introduced to MM as a Jr. in highschool. Last year had the oppertunity to finally go see them live. Started catching up on recent music by them, and watching some videos. After watching a few and ending on this one I ended up not going to the concert for fear of ending up running around in the streets high on Acid with my pants on my head. It would have been a natural progression and I'm just too old for that anymore.
The part where isaac gouges out AARON Mcgehee's eyes over a tree makes me laugh everytime because of how brutal they made it look? Like isaac really put some effort into it!!🤣🤣🤣 I love these guys!!!
Dance belts are a man's best friend.
i look for a subliminal message, but sometimes i think their message is just to confuse the shit out of everyone.
kelin818 I agree it can be confusing at times, but I think the message in the album and this video is fairly clear. Mankind is destroying the planet and we are enjoying it.
Cellan86 Yeah it seems to be a recurring theme throughout the album. Even the cover art fits that idea.
I must look for meanings! MEANINGS!
Patty Melt i lay flat, thought you did well.
Patty Melt i lay flat, thought you did well.
The party with the ghosts of trees, sounds awesome!!!
2:27 I know that face.... he's feeling it....
Saw them the other day at the Agora theater they were amazing sound just like this live. When they played this song I lost it!!
It's an excellent video. Watch it about 10 times and you'll kinda get it.
Patty Melt hahaa
summercool3
Patty Melt 10/10 comment, would read again.
Patty Melt 10/10 comment, would read again.
Patty Melt Love videos like this =)
Music especially his IS therapy
This music video is awesome way to go modest mouse!
For me, there's always at least one Modest Mouse-album-defining song that's a real banger, and this is it
I heard this song but yeah, just wanted to say this song like helped me live.
I want to see the movie to this. This is so weiiirrrd!! Incredible.
That acid is REALLY kicking in.
Ty modest mouse ... Stumbled upon this while having quite the trip. Ty so much .
I don’t know if any of y’all’ve played the phone game “Reigns”, but this song captures the experience perfectly:
Too many people with crowns and no idea what is going on. And also- surprise!- a secret cult?
_Our predecessor left this box and something's crawling around_
_I think it really wants out_
I don't know why, but the delivery of this line has always given me goosebumps, from the first time I heard it in 2015, to even now.
I just 2 seconds ago added exactly those lines to a comment. Brilliant.
come to Portugal please this year or the next and bring Spoon and Pavement with you
***** yeah, I know mate. But since i'm asking, i ask for everything at the same time and they convince those guys to play some more gigs soon :D
Modest Mouse is love! Modest Mouse is life!
did the end remind anyone else of the scene from Game of Thrones where the mountain did that same thing to the viper?
too soon.
+Ayana Vilmenay lmao
+Matt von D Sometimes i will purposely let my bowls release in public just so people will look at me. Because they say i'm ugly. But i can't help it. My mother was on drugs and drank heavily. And i had to wear my sister's clothes to school because we were too poor and now i'm like this can someone please be my friend
+Kasadoll 's Page The better question is... why would someone NOT want to be your friend?
my man :D
life would be shit without this. best band ever. brilliant sound. i wish they never get tired to make music. (hungary)
This is insane! I love it!
Still here and listening!
I LOVE this, but what the FUCK is this? 😂
Alexis G. S. modest mouse
Alexis G. S. I gat u but just had to say it
Alexis G. S. Modest Mouse has always had amazing directors for their music videos *points to King Rat*.
Alexis G. S. As well try to discern what the songs mean. Lampshades on Fire lyrics and the music video depict (to me at least) humanity screwing every one/thing around them and not caring or trying to fix the problems we caused.
Rikor Volsati fix it later mentality
Wow, what a deep performance. Everyone's expressions are so strong and pronounced, almost satirical I love the message this has.
2:13 Liked right when I saw it.
fucking love u guys!! 5 years later and i still show people this song
What are everyone's favorite Modest Mouse songs? Mine (I'm fairly new to the band):
5. Heart Cooks Brain
4. Gravity Rides Everything
3. Trailer Trash
2. Float On
1. Broke
O Ya broke is a great one try these songs though. The good times are killing me, spitting venom, and my favorite it's a old song from when they just came out but NIGHT ON THE SUN
Jeff Gordon Night on the Sun is one of my favorites. *Talking Shit About a Pretty Sunset*, *Edit the Sad Parts* and *Teeth Like God's Shoeshine* are all fantastic songs also and their best work IMO. As for their more recent songs I strangely find myself digging *King Rat* and the *Whale Song*. *Never Ending Math Equation* is also a fun song. There are far to many to list tbh :)
drummer4916 Geez this is pretty tough, but I'm guessing mines are The View, Florida, Ansel, The ground walks with time in a box, King Rat, Head South, Doin' the cockroach, We've got everything... And I can keep on going but these are some of my favorite ones.
Ha their all great songs missed the boat, gravity rides everything I love king rats video makes u think bout life wish more people would watch it specially those dam whaling Chinese
My favorite is dashboard. It's upbeat and catchy. Best in my opinion.
This song puts me in a weird state of mind.
This video was kind of weird. Some people are comparing this music video to "Game of Thrones" TV series. I wouldn't know because I've never watched that show. Anyways, I wouldn't expect anything less from Modest Mouse when it comes to unique, different, and weird music videos. They are creative in their own way. I've listened to Modest Mouse's music for a long time. One of my ex-boyfriends was a bigtime fan of Modest Mouse. I actually like this song. It's very catchy and memorable. I'm glad Modest Mouse are still recording and sharing music.
I'm torn between this, Dashboard, ppl as places as ppl and spitting venom as their best song. They are all so audibly stunning.
And today not a single fuck was given by Isaac. Rock on.
I need whatever they're taking. I need a trip like that....
best song and video stoned
Noice ! a 2021 documentary ?,... On a sadder note. Rip Jeremiah , we have lost many through these past few years, my condolences to the band and family. Much love and respect
1: Life Like Weeds
2: 3rd Planet
3: Tiny City Made of Ashes
4: Dramamine
5: The Stars are Projectors
The moon and .....
@@benjamincera1806 Antarctica?
Yes
I didn’t see your direction with that list...maybe i misread or didnt catch the conversation
can't stop listen to this song
What I seem to see here is something like this. (After everyone is long gone and the worlds resources are long gone from fighting and killing over the worlds resources, all that is left are the "kings" to lead their imaginary world of judgement and condemnation of all. When the tree is seen, it starts all over again until the human species kills its self off and the world is left in ruines. The pride of the fools that lead us. We in turn are fools for doing nothing to stop it.) Dunno, seems what I take from this video. I enjoyed it as much as looking at art. Very cool.
There is a reason why nobody wants to hear your drrrrivel....
saw them about a week ago in nashville. i keep reliving it over and over. i’ll have to go to another
Preach it Isaac. Doctor Who sounding lyrics, GOT themed video. I get it now, forget the home stereo, television is the evil one.
Weird fact...Velociraptors only hunt when hungry. No need for fences, just FEED the damn thing...lmao. Can protect the park.
Isaac looks like that one fool on ancient aliens Giorgio A. Tsoukalos "ALIENS" xD especially at 2:33
Omg!!!! Yes!!!
How could anyone dislike this song so early. ;-; This is pure art and creativity
I just noticed, and I love how most, if not, all Modest Mouse music videos revolve around a central theme, as if they all exist within the same universe. I'm in the early stages of theorizing a Modest Mouse Mythos. . . and that's what they'll call the movie.
It's a good Melody with an open ended meaning; subjective to the listener. I enjoy it.
Dashboard 2?
I don't know how i started listening to this band back in 2007, but I'm glad I did
Isaac has finally lost his mind :D
wonderful :D
This song defines the meaning of life
How much lsd was involved
Noah Paez None. Isaac's clean and has been for many years now. (though you wouldn't think it watching this, would you?)
The Professional Novice I didn't think he actually used lsd, I was just using it as a meter for how much I wtf'd throughout this.
Noah Paez To quote a previous song of his (The Good Times Are Killing Me) "Fed up with all that LSD/ Need more sleep than coke or meth amphetamines/ Late nights with warm, warm whiskey/ I guess the good times they were all just killing me."
Too much. Too much man. They tripped balls for weeks. Lol
actually I am pretty sure Isaac is clean. So is Eric and Jerimiah. I dont know whats up with everyone thinking drugs are required for creativity. They are just weird dudes who are making weird music.
The symbolism is crazy in this. Just in the lyrics the symbolism is strong.
I can't tell if Isaac Brock is pure genius, or just constantly tripping on acid.
Or both?
You forgot amphetamine.
Sweet. More Modest Mouse suitable for shopping malls. Thanks guys, but please stop while we still love you.
im pretty sure that other king dude he killed in the end was 'danger arron' from Jackass
I was thinking the same shit!! Yeah it definitely is!
+Mat Hiner 100%
+Mat Hiner It definitely is, Ehren McGehey's twitter confirms it.
nice catch.
Holy shit
AWESOME! HEY.... That was awesome!!!
