Jim Guthrie - Save It lyrics

Save it, touch wood and then Feel the breeze on your face This place is a disgrace all The time Save it, touch wood and then Feel the breeze on your face Long with things I slash and trace In spare time I can see the future now But only when I blink Please don't sing And when I sleep I see past thoughts Of thoughts and fights That people didn't think Waited at the bus stop For the lame, the gifted, the damned When everyone got onboard I knew Right then and there I knew it was a scam Cause they'll sit And you'll say It gets you off In your own special way Why does tomorrow Have to be better Than today Well, tomorrow's no better than today With all the long Skirts and all the tapered pants And all the long skirts With all the tapered pants It's funny He couldn't understand He felt it in his heart But it wouldn't come Through his hands But it wouldn't come Through his hands It was risky but he has A little plan He'd build himself a ship With a rusty old paint can And an oscillating fan Had a life affirming talk With the garbage man today He said "believe in me. I take the trash away" How do you do it
