Neighborhood #4 (7 Kettles) |
I am waitin' 'til I don’t know when, |
cause I’m sure it’s gonna happen then. |
Time keeps creepin' through the neighborhood, |
killing old folks, wakin' up babies |
just like we knew it would. |
All the neighbors are startin' up a fire, |
burning all the old folks the witches and the liars. |
My eyes are covered by the hands of my unborn kids, |
but my heart keeps watchin' |
through the skin of my eyelids. |
They say a watched pot won’t ever boil, |
well I closed my eyes and nothin' changed, |
just some water getting hotter in the flames. |
It’s not a lover I want no more, |
and it’s not heaven I’m pining for, |
but there’s some spirit I used to know, |
that’s been drowned out by the radio! |
They say a watched pot won’t ever boil, |
you can’t raise a baby on motor oil, |
just like a seed down in the soil |
you gotta give it time |
