Straight to the Bone
Seven hours and six minutes ago
I convinced myself I have the worlds best ideas
But I can't just go tell everyone that I know
To entrust is not as simple as trusting your peers
My shoulders are ripe for the weight of the world
And I hand pick the leaves off the seeds that we've sown
Because pruning a sapling will only help it to grow
And to minimise our chewing, we cut our meat straight to the bone
Yes, we cut our meat straight to the bone
Straight to the bone
With the sharpest of knives that we own
We'll make sure we get through just enough to feed two
And no man is left standing alone
Straight to the bone
Give me time and I'll convince you as well
That you too can think of the worlds best ideas
But you can't just go tell everyone that you know
I've seen people cut throats for less over the years
The battle continues between good and bad
And no one we trust is an heir to the throne
So if corruption is the cause, there's an effect to be had
And to minimise our chewing, we cut our meat straight to the bone
Yes, we cut our meat straight to the bone
Straight to the bone
With the sharpest of knives that we own
We'll make sure we get through just enough to feed two
And no man is left standing alone
Straight to the bone
Straight to the bone
Yes, we cut our meat straight to the bone
Straight to the bone
With the sharpest of knives that we own
We'll make sure we get through just enough to feed two
And no man is left standing alone
Then if the others concur, we could portion a third and I'll be the one to eat on my own
Straight to the bone
