Man in a silk tie heads downtown
|
setting up the pins for knocking em down
|
people in cars all rushing around
|
setting up the pins
|
|
let's get rich find a way around
|
setting up the pins for knocking em down
|
we'll get gadget with a whirring sound
|
for setting up the pins
|
|
everyone everywhere some way some how
|
are setting up the pins for knocking em down
|
|
you can find joy in the fertile ground
|
setting up the pins and knocking em down
|
you can try to fight it till you're anger drowned
|
setting up the pins
|
|
everyone everywhere some way some how
|
are setting up the pins for knocking em down
|
it can feel simple but it's really profound
|
setting up the pins
|
|
rent a tent, build a stage, throw a party, get a gown
|
buy a ticket, rent a car, pack a bag and leave town,
|
cook a dinner, clean the kitchen hit the light
|
brush your teeth, read a book, say a prayer good-night
|
|
everyone everywhere some way some how
|
are setting up the pins for knocking em down
|
it can feel simple but it's really profound...
|
|
my grandmother had a working song
|
hummed it low all day long
|
sing for the beauty that's to be found
|
in setting up the pins for knocking em down
|
