Witless Or Wise - Neil Halstead

Sturdy and bright

Oh giver of life

Are you witless or wise?

Government warning

This lover may bore you

Tattooed to my back

Tenements fell from the skies

When love lights fell from your eyes

Flags flying high

Weary patient may rise

I don’t think so no

I don’t think so at all

Chasing the cars

Down around marble arch

A memory to far

Once lost in your eyes

Now caught between thighs

Should we ask for the bill?

Never did get to the edge

Never jumped no my life carried on

Flags flying high

Weary patient may rise

I don’t think so no

I don’t think so at all

Should I give you my head?

My kidney

My bed

Should I run far way

Those ghost in your eyes

Well they cry when you smile

And it’s hard to be near

Tenements fell from the skies

When love lights fell from your eyes

Flags flying high

Weary patient may rise

I don’t think so no

I don’t think so at all
