Carbon Leaf Ordinary Eyes Lyrics

Ordinary Eyes Lyrics



Shall we begin? 

Gather round, gather all: 

Keep it real, strip it down 

Rather not wait around 

With the Hungry Eyes of a snake-oil salesman 

Wait/Hurry 

Water to wine 

Have got the patience... 

Haven't got the time 

Saw Dusty Eyes...some enthused 

Some act the part 

(but nonetheless, plan to lose) 

Something wicked-good this way comes 

Not twice upon a lifetime 

[CHORUS] 

Blackbirds...you watch 'em... 

They know the black clouds 

They are all runnin' home 

Lightning rod (divining toy) 

When the rains come, what is your source for joy? 

Looked at my life: a painted clown 

un-amused 

Keep it real, strip it down 

Rather not wait around 

With the Hungry Eyes of a snake oil salesman 

[CHORUS] 

Home, home. 

They are all runnin' home.
