LYLE: EARS

Hairy Knuckles

(MZZL/Lyle Tharp)
From the EP "4 Stand Up Dolls". Recorded 2003.
Sometime it's hard to show
What I'm trying to say
Still I try.
Do you get it now?

Standing here in faces
Lips move to prove a point
Should we step beyond? Show us how

A moment of changes
This life proves to be
Though chains are broken
Still drag behind me

Out here in the wonder
Strangest strangers you meet
I can tell by your number
we're the same
Your arms are still bleeding
Must've just got out
Here's a change of clothes, just forget your name

The life you have fought for
Everything is subject to taste
Out here your an icon
Inside, easy replaced
Through the bars at the monkeys
Don't stare too long
The fur and the tail you lost
Knows where it belongs

Knows where it belongs
It knows
Knows where it belongs
It knows
