Everything Must Change
Never took a paper or a learned degree,
And some of your friends think that's stupid of me,
But it's nothing that I care about.
Well I don't know how to tell the weight of the sun,
And of mathematics well I want none,
And I may be the Mayor of Simpleton,
But I know one thing,
And that's I love you.
When their logic grows cold and all thinking gets done,
You'll be warm in the arms of the Mayor of Simpleton.
I can't have been there when brains were handed round
(please be upstanding for the Mayor of Simpleton),
Words
Do you hear me?
Do you care?
Do you hear me?
Do you care?
My lips are moving and the sound's coming out
The words are audible but I have my doubts
That you realise what has been said
You look at me as if you're in a daze
It's like the feeling at the end of the page when you realise
You don't know what you just read.
What are words for
When noone listens anymore
What are words for
When noone listens what are words for
When noone listens
There's no use talking at all.
I might as well go up and talk to a wall
Coz all the words are having no effect at all
It's a funny thing.. am I all alone?
Something has to happen to change the direction
What little filters though is giving you the wrong impression
"it's a sorry state" I say to myself
What are words for
When noone listens anymore
What are words for
When noone listens what are words for
When noone listens
There's no use talking at all.
Do you hear me?
Do you care?
Do you hear me?
Do you care?
Let me get by over your dead body
Hope to see you soon
When will I know?
Doors three feet wide with no locks open
Walking always backwards in faces of strangers
Time could be my friend
But it's less then nowhere now....
Pursue it any further and another thing you'll find
Not only are they deaf and dumb they could be going blind
noone notices
I think I'll dye my hair blue.
Media overload bombarding you with action
It's getting near impossible to cause distraction
someone answer me.. before I pull the plug.
What are words for
When noone listens anymore
What are words for
When noone listens what are words for
When noone listens
There's no use talking at all.
Do you hear me?
Do you care?
Do you hear me?
Do you care?
Do you hear me?
Do you care?
Do you hear me?
Do you care?
