Lyrics Carbon Leaf

Carbon Leaf

Ordinary Eyes

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

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

Blackbirds you watch 'em

They know the black clouds

They are all runnin' home

Lightning rod (divining toy)

Home, home.

They are all runnin' home.
