Gentle Giant Knots Lyrics

Knots Lyrics

All in all each man in all men

 All men in each man.

 He can see she can't, she can see

   she can

 see whatever, whatever.

 You may know what I don't know,

   but not that

 I don't know it and I can't tell you

 so you will.

 To tell me all man in all men

 All men in each man.

 He can see she can't, she can see

   she can

 see whatever, whatever.

 You may know what I don't know,

   but not that

 I don't know it and I can't tell you

 so you will have to tell me all.

 It hurts him to think that she is

 hurting her by him being hurt to think

 that she thinks he is hurt by making her

 feel guilty at hurting him by her thinking

 she wants him to want her.  Her wants

   her to

 want him to get him to want him to get

 him to want her she pretends.

 He tries to make her afraid by not

 being afraid. (permutations)

 You may know what I don't know, but not

 that I don't know it and I can't

 tell you so you will have to tell

 me all.

 I get what I deserve.  I deserve what I

 get.  I have it so I deserve it. I deserve

 it for I have it.  I get what I deserve.

 What I deserve - what I deserve what

   I get.

 I have it so I deserve.

 He tries to make her afraid by not

 being afraid.

 

 Note:

 R.D. Laing, an eminent psychologist, has

 stimulated us by his intriguing, logical,

 poetic riddles into composing this

 latter-day madrigal - and something of

 a musical jigsaw.
