[Verse]
Drought makes the workers dream
Muscles and fields of green
Shovel the last few crumbs of generosity
Open heart, open mind, open mouth, open vein, drain
Someday the rains will come
My blistered hands tell me
Tomorrow, tomorrow, tomorrow
[Refrain]
Bite
Bite
Bite
Cry
[Chorus]
Smaller and smaller and smaller
I'll keep coming back
Smaller and smaller and smaller
Squash me
Smaller and smaller and smaller
Under the charity
Smaller and smaller and smaller
Under the topsoil
Smaller and smaller and smaller
Under the fingernail
Smaller and smaller and smaller
Small becomes all becomes all
[Refrain]
Bite
Bite
Bite
Cry
[Bridge]
Drain
Drain
[Refrain]
Bite
Bite
Bite
Cry
[Outro]
Shovel the last few crumbs of generosity
Smaller and smaller and smaller
Smaller and smaller and smaller
Smaller and smaller and smaller
Smaller and smaller and smaller
Smaller and smaller and smaller
Smaller and smaller and smaller
Smaller and smaller and smaller
Smaller and smaller and smaller
Smaller and smaller and smaller
Smaller and smaller and smaller

In 2012, Billy Gould shared on a blog:
“Smaller and Smaller”, while pretty grandiose in concept, always felt too long and too plodding to even consider doing live. And truth be told, we were never quite as attached to that one as some of the others.
