Lyrics Brandon Flowers

Brandon Flowers

Swallow It

Seek out the light between

Time and confusion glowing up ahead

Instead of slipping through

You bit off more, much more than you could chew

You could not swallow it

No, baby you're not ready

Slow down and take the time to evolve

You could not swallow it

No, baby you're not ready

Slow down

We had a lot to learn

Table manners and grace, how to wait your turn

When time came to clear your slate

You had too much, had too much on your plate

You could not swallow it

No, baby you're not ready

Slow down and take the time to evolve

You could not swallow it

No, baby you're not ready

Slow down

Take your medicine and crawl before you walk

Think it through before you open your mouth to talk

Be an advocate of joy

Find your little heart's desire

Follow it

Woah, baby you're not ready

Slow down and take the time to evolve

You could not swallow it

No, baby you're not ready now

Slow down

No no, no no

Don't be afraid

This is your year

It's gonna be all right

You're a performer

Just take your time

But not too much time

No no, no no
