Eavesdropper

Man, I've never heard a phrase like that My favourite boom bap won't let my neighbours cat have any lazy naps Its owner's slack, still shagging that backpacker chap She should relax and feel the thump of the track, uh 'Cause she hears it, but she never listens Always goes about her day and waits without any suspicion Man I wish I was the same but my key's in the ignition I've just got to get away I don't need her recognition, now Like a Northman with nothing else to do I might just sail and prevail with the gents in my crew I'm still forever on a mission missing everything new To keep expanding and collapsing like Kievan Rus' Search for the truth, her worth is hidden deep in the clues Never ahead, dead rotten at the back of the queue Instead fled to the docks without a yacht just a canoe Caught gawkin' at the clock wishing time flew Never meant to kick up dust Can't remember how to speed things up I'm wishing we could readjust My eavesdropper won't believe his luck I can't stand making plans The journey began bland when the sandy village nan commanded we leave her land She would gladly shake your hand if you'd just listen, understand Position the white flag, make it seen, make it grand, man Never lonely once you leave the nest Too busy huffing, always heaving like a dog pulling sleds I knew sons that chew gum like Spann smoked cigarettes Forever placing bets to sink it straight through the net Donkey kicking dust walking wonky like Augustus Singing shanties picking candy, handyman, I trust him Plucking strings, as busy as Beijing Stuck in traffic while nothing happens I guarantee it At least her cat is sat listening to beats Lapping milk, combatting the mean streets and human treats Chirping up a storm hear the bird tweets in burnt heat Hidden in the shade of the… Never meant to kick up dust Can't remember how to speed things up I'm wishing we could readjust My eavesdropper won't believe his luck
