Overtones of Sierra Leone
Meat hanging from the bone, now that I've let you go
All of my LPs scratched & lost the thread
All the sleeves are torn & scattered on the bed
Everyone around has been awake for days
Peace & order here just seems to slip away
As I hear the words I scrawl them on the wall
The growing fear within to hear the hammer fall
I'm not in denial, I know I'm in the red
And all the peaceful loving hippies want me dead
Overtones of Sierra Leone
Meat hanging from the bone, now that I've let you go
Waiting for the answers to your dreams
Its never quite as it seemed before intruders & their schemes
Never quite as it seems
Change has come around like an unwelcome guest
My patience panicing, I hold it to my chest
Though it occurs to me not to put it to the test
As I know this frame of mind I'm in is dangerous at best
Overtones of Sierra Leone
Meat hanging from the bone, now that I've let you go
Waiting for the answers to your dreams
Its never quite as it seemed before intruders & their schemes
Never quite as it seems
Overtones of Sierra Leone
Meat hanging from the bone, now that I've let you go
