Tunnels |
| I knew no vices and I knew no sin |
| I knew the words, but they didn’t sink in |
| Stayed out those tunnels that pull people down |
| There’s more of those tunnels in your home town |
| Fell far from grace, so far I couldn’t see |
| And oh, underground, I wasn’t that far from the tree |
| We’re all digging if you wanna know |
| Fixing, digging far too slow |
| Far too slow |
| We dug for money, we shoveled four tons |
| And the end wasn’t funny, though we’d all had fun |
| Limping and broken, the tunnel fell in |
| I’ve been limping from tunnels since my original sin |
| Birthright’s a trouble, my father dug too |
| He got where he was going at the age of sixty-two |
| We’re all digging if you wanna know |
| Fixing, digging far too slow |
| Far too slow |
| A new pair of boots and a chisel in your name |
| Says that we could be in the same hole attracting the same blame |
| If I knew the way to the ornamental tree |
| I would tell you, we’d be jailbirds, I’d be winking twice for free |
| Don’t call on your brother, odds are he’s here and all |
| Being gentle with the people who were knock-kneed from the fall |
| We’re all digging if you wanna know |
| Fixing, digging far too slow |
| Far too slow |
| We’re all digging if you wanna know |
| Fixing, digging far too slow |
| Far too slow |
