Track 1 of 'Three Brass Monkeys'

Hear No Evil

lyrics

White knuckles as my hands collide,
Clasping at the stem of a dandilion,
I wished for poisin but what I got was a catalyst to fuel my life.

Hope returned from the perfect storm,
They made it through the night but they still got burned,
That maiden voyage lost as sea so lets sit and watch the tables turn.

There’s no time for this in today’s world,

No I won’t listen to a word you say,
They throw stones in puddles I’ve struggled to sail.
So I won’t listen to a word you say,
‘Til you follow what your influence says.

We’re just scared to loose a life that’s not,
Placed itself in our path as we fall,
Lets release the leach and hunt the woods for more,

Hold your breath and as you run out of air,
We both know the kiss that you want to replace it with,
Don’t clip your wings if you’re already free as a bird.

There’s no time for this in today’s world,

No I won’t listen to a word you say,
They throw stones in puddles I’ve struggled to sail.
So I won’t listen to a word you say,
‘Til you follow what your influence says.

Dreams they don’t fly,

No I won’t listen to a word you say,
They throw stones in puddles I’ve struggled to sail.
So I won’t listen to a word you say,
‘Til you follow what your influence says.
