"My Big Day (Three Versions)" lyrics - GUIDED BY VOICES
[Version 1]
I stole the fleece from the grasp of the beast
Now I will rest in peace, yeah I will rest in peace
And it's my big day
It's my big day
I peeled the skin from the fruit of good men
Waging war over sin, yeah I'd do it all again
On my big day
Over my big day
It's my day
It's my day
It's my day
It's my day
Don't you try to spoil it
I'm a firebreathing dragon
Don't you try to stop me, watch me
I'm a hi-tech paddy wagon
Here I go
Smooth sailing
From here on out
[Version 2]
I stole the fleece from the grasp of the beast
Now I will rest in peace, yeah I will rest in peace
And it's my big day
And it's my big day
I peeled the skin from the fruit of good men
Waging war over sin, yeah I'd do it all again
On my big day
It's my big day
It's my day
It's my day
It's my day
It's my day
Now don't you try to spoil it
I'm a firebreathing dragon
Don't you try to stop me, watch me
Off the ground with nothing draggin'
Here I go
Smooth sailing
From here on out
[Version 3]
I stole the fleece from the grasp of the beast
Now I will rest in peace, yeah I will rest in peace
And it's my big day
Oh, it's my big day
I peeled the skin from the fruit of good men
Waging war over sin, yeah I'd do it all again
On my big day
Oh, it's my big day
Written in blood passed down through ages
A song for any fool to play
On his big day
Boys will be boys making all kinds of noise
With the dangerous toys
I keep my poise 'cause it's my big day
Oh it's my big day
Kings versus kings but it don't mean a thing
It's a serious thing
When a straight pack slings
On my big day
Oh, it's my big day
It's my day
It's my day
It's my day
It's my day
It's my day
It's my day
Now don't you try to spoil it
I'm a firebreathing dragon
Now don't you try to stop me, watch me
Off the ground with nothing draggin'
Here I go
Smooth sailing
From here on out
