Tiny Voices |
You wild beasts and you creeping things |
Get down in your place |
Down with all the absolutes |
God’s awful grace |
Who wants to see this coming? |
Who wants to think you do? |
Better to be blind when I’m |
Falling for you |
Go and tell old Pharaoh |
His time has come about |
His pretty houseboys laugh and sing |
As they’re filing out |
They’ve set fire behind them |
I see it burning into view |
High upon the mountain where I’m |
Falling for you |
All manner of abandon |
Is just the thing we need |
Get ready for the country, boys |
The town has gone to seed |
The telephone live is sagging |
With word coming through: |
Put your head between your knees, I’m |
Falling for you |
I can quit this anytime |
It’s just to help me sleep |
It stops the tiny voices |
And strange hours that they keep |
Who wants to hear them bleating on |
And have to answer too? |
Better to be dumb when I’m |
Falling for you |
So you ladies and you gentlemen- |
Pull your bloomers on |
Swing up on the highest beam |
And let the floods come on |
Who wants to be there wondering |
When the Wonders rage on through? |
Better to say never when I’m |
Falling for you |
