Ben Harper "Please Don't Talk About Murder While I'm Eating" |
You're the first one to get there And always the last one to leave You're the first one to chuckle But the last one to grieve I know all too well the world takes a daily beating But please don't talk about murder while I'm eating You walk into the temple You call it a church I tried to keep things simple But you always need the works Your life is marked by numbers and symbols Excessive drinking from out of golden thimbles Just a moment of silence I need So let's not talk about murder while I'm eating Please don't talk about murder while I'm eating You get all hot and bothered At the strangest times and places But don't notice the looks On all the others faces You're dressed for summer In the middle of December But you've all but forgotten I painfully remember Now I don't care if in the least what you're reading Please don't talk about murder while I'm eating Please don't talk about murder while I'm eating Let's not talk about murder while I'm eating Lyric from www.lyricmania.com |
