lyrics

You are walking around with your head in the clouds and you don’t know what to do. You ain’t got a can to kick around so a bum on the ground will do.
You are a very small man, a prelude to rocks against tear gas.
A very serious charge against a serious man with a televised outcome. Rigged thyroid now we’re stunted growth, there’s no poetic empathy.
You are a very small man, a novel a tragedy in a bench. It is bound to crack like a digger’s back with blatant fingerprints. Is not the dead you are grieving for, is for the company you’ll obtain.
You are a very small man, an epilogue to an occupied page.
