Lyrics

Well it's hit or miss
Upon the gate walls
Are the guards asleep?
Bayonet and all

Well the search light is coming
We built this tunnel
We shovel with our hands

Dig just a little bit
The camp is fast asleep
Library laundromats
Inside the dirty sheets
You've got to dig just a little bit

Soup kitchen feeds
Lines of stubble and marrow
A book of matches
Guides us home
Do they have our scent?
Will we go home?
We shovel with our hands

Dig just a little bit
The camp is fast asleep
Library laundromats
Dig just a little bit
The camp is fast asleep
Library laundromats
Live just a little bit
Dakota fields will beg
Meet you on the other side
Dig just a little bit

They steamrolled past the lobby
Did you trip on your shoelace, untied?
(It's in the past.)
And now...we toast
[X2]

Dig just a little bit
The camp is fast asleep
Library laundromats
Dig just a little bit
The camp is fast asleep
Library laundromats
Live just a little bit
Dakota fields will beg
Meet you on the other side
Winnipeg's a forest
Where the search and seizure hid
Wanted for the crime of the disease that you give
Wanted for the crime of the disease that you give
