They Perched on Their Stilts,
by Silverstein
On my face I scratched out something like a silhouette, around the golden ten like lambs...
On my face I've hidden away any embarrassment, away from my acquaintances...
On my face I've hidden away any embarrassment, away from my acquaintances...
I'm not sold on anything but half a dream
I'm not sensing a thing.
I'm not sensing a thing.
I see a blank notebook page
And it's my life and there is nothing I can think to write
I guess I'm not sensing a thing.
And it's my life and there is nothing I can think to write
I guess I'm not sensing a thing.
I hope you don't see a thing
Smile through everyone you ever see
So what you gave him the time of day, twist back and end this suffering.
Smile through everyone you ever see
So what you gave him the time of day, twist back and end this suffering.
Oh, dance around, I honestly give up and derobe...
I see a blank notebook page
And It's my life and I'm nothing I can think to write
Not anymore, not sensing a thing.
And It's my life and I'm nothing I can think to write
Not anymore, not sensing a thing.
Right side because heavenly, gracefully you, I owe you too
Smile, I'm because heavenly life should be so easy...
(x2)
Smile, I'm because heavenly life should be so easy...
(x2)
