the night of a thousand verses |
|
one thousand friends said have you heard |
|
what we expected |
|
we are all working late and |
|
waiting to win a prize we don't deserve |
|
and live to collect it |
|
can't you see i'm weary |
|
maybe this news can wait |
|
the night of a thousand verses |
|
one thousand strivers strain to hear |
|
a voice that's left us |
|
and the magazines still have to sell us |
|
twelve mastergeniuses a year |
|
it's all so shameless |
|
can't you see i'm weary |
|
maybe this news can wait |
|
can't you see i'm blurry |
|
maybe this news can wait |
|
maybe there was a message in it |
|
i don't know where you hid it |
|
maybe there was a piece that will fit |
|
i don't know where to fit it |
|
tell me what kind of prize can you get |
|
where you don't want to win it |
|
can't you see i'm weary |
|
maybe this news can wait |
|
can't you see i'm blurry |
|
maybe this blues can wait |
