- Toes Across The Floor LyricsDoesn't anybody feel that all these killers should be killed
And all these healers should be healed so all these beggars can be filled
And now tell me why am I to lie if I'm holding firm and feel the right
To lie beside this dog of mine and let that perverted
Thought really run through my mind, my mind
Ahh ooo ahh
Ahh ooo ahh
Ahh ooo ahh
Ahh ooo ahh
I'd scrape my toes across the floor this day's the same as those before
And though inside I'm feeling giddy
Always wrong for never giving myself an uninvaded door
So now I'll take a little glue, I'll put together a new glittered room for you
So I can start sitting so pretty instead of sitting here not seein' clear
Just sitting here not fittin' here, no things ain't fittin' here
Ahh ooo ahh
Ahh ooo ahh
Ahh ooo ahh
Ahh ooo ahh
Now I'll just lay my head down beside this God of mine
And let that perverted thought burn a hole in my mind
Oh and if I can't lay my head beside this God of mine
Oh then maybe the hunter's dog called God could be my friend in time
And all these healers should be healed so all these beggars can be filled
And now tell me why am I to lie if I'm holding firm and feel the right
To lie beside this dog of mine and let that perverted
Thought really run through my mind, my mind
Ahh ooo ahh
Ahh ooo ahh
Ahh ooo ahh
Ahh ooo ahh
I'd scrape my toes across the floor this day's the same as those before
And though inside I'm feeling giddy
Always wrong for never giving myself an uninvaded door
So I can start sitting so pretty instead of sitting here not seein' clear
Just sitting here not fittin' here, no things ain't fittin' here
Ahh ooo ahh
Ahh ooo ahh
Ahh ooo ahh
Ahh ooo ahh
Now I'll just lay my head down beside this God of mine
And let that perverted thought burn a hole in my mind
Oh and if I can't lay my head beside this God of mine
Oh then maybe the hunter's dog called God could be my friend in time

When we dive into the story the lyrics are telling, Blind Melon’s ‘Toes Across the Floor’ is an epic saga of existence, identity, and an inner self, where each one of us fights his or her own personal battle, cries out loud, and in the end, steps back, metaphorically speaking, to reflect on the whole thing. The song expresses these battles, the inner being and the superpower (God) through metaphors like ‘dog of mine’ and ‘God of mine.’ Across the floor the lyrics lead one to reflect, isolate himself/herself, feel the angst, seek spirituality and eventually feel empowered. At the same time, the song reveals the need for questioning and scrutinizing social standards, personal struggle and identity, commonality and monotony, searching for meaning and stepping back, estrangement and discomfort, and spiritual and existential reflection. Some members of the audience might find the lyrics disturbing since they recognize themes of violence ('killers should be killed'), references to sexual misconduct, and a 'hunter's dog called God.' Moreover, the constant reference to 'perverted thought' might be interpreted as a reflection of the artist's mind which though being so, by the very nature of the discussion, is still not an age-rated topic.
