(Verse 1) The earth is soft beneath my feet, a patch of dark desire We started small, a shallow feat, but now the need is dire I never asked for your strong hand, or that heavy, meaty friend But you said, "Darlin', understand, I'll see this to the end." (Chorus) You're helping me excavate, you're making the pit much deeper With every motion, every grate, my hidden, buried keeper Oh, the aperture's a tight squeeze, I see your massive instrument It causes me a moment's unease, the space is way too scant But you've got that determined smile, you know just what to do We'll clear this space for a little while, and I'm trusting it to you. (Verse 2) The sweat is beading on your brow, the implement is gleaming bright You push it deep, inside me now, with all your focus and your might The way you handle that long piece of meat, it shows your deep devotion Making progress, stroke by stroke, this rhythmic, slow motion I just scratched the surface first, not knowing how to sink it down You quenched me of my undying thirst, the deepest in this town. (Chorus) You're helping me excavate, you're making the pit much deeper With every motion, every grate, my hidden, buried keeper Oh, the aperture's a tight squeeze, I see your massive instrument It causes me a moment's unease, the space is way too scant But you've got that determined smile, you know just what to do We'll clear this space for a little while, and I'm trusting it to you. (Bridge) It's just a little indentation, a pocket in the field But with your fierce dedication, the stubborn dirt will yield I watch you work, with focus true, defying all the odds This simple job, you'll see it through, with your gift from the good gods. (Chorus) You're helping me excavate, you're making the pit much deeper With every motion, every grate, my hidden, buried keeper Oh, the aperture's a tight squeeze, I see your massive instrument It causes me a moment's unease, the space is way too scant But you've got that determined smile, you know just what to do We'll clear this space for a little while, and I'm trusting it to you. (Outro X2) Yes, I'm trusting it to you...(harder darling) Digging out this little niche...(it feels so good) It's sure to get the job done...(until I’m out of breath) Mmm, it's sure to get the job done.
