lyrics

Stepping Out

You can have your words of wisdom
And the conjured arm that leads you
And the wine upon your table
Take care whose potion feeds you

Don't be shy just tell what you think
what you feel and who you are
'Cause we stand and sit and shit and piss
Just like each other

Tinker tailor soldier sailor rich man poor man beggar man thief
But if time should stop tomorrow your world would keep on moving on
Your huddled darting glances convicted scheming moving on
'Cause you held me down in high court
And placed the cloth upon your head

I didn't revert to you words or yours to mine
How can I when your book of logic
Is my book of crimes

I'm stepping out I'm stepping out

You borrow and steal and cheat and lie
Then ask me what's in it for me
Hey boy you know I once heard
A fair exchange is no robbery

You had me in mind for a project in a gallery
But the wind changed direction
And you put me out to sea

And if you learn a storey
Your fine clean lines soon go out of shape
Your jewels weigh you down
And your gold is buried down with you

I didn't revert to your words or yours to mine
How can I when your book of logic
Is my book of crimes

I'm stepping out I'm stepping out
