Plunkett - Flies lyrics

rate me

Two and two make three

But only when I scream

All the other times two and two make four

And that’s the time I think

Reflect on what I know

Open up the flies to their home from home

I see you on T.V

Meet you every now and then

A placid man it’s hard that I’ll lose my cool

But you claim you’ve open hearts?

Keep crossed your rosy legs?

You know frustration takes you to the darkest

place?

And I don’t know why

But it just won’t sit inside

And I don’t know why

There’s three colours in your eyes

When I believe in love

I believe in giving out

I believe the stars will always shine

I’ve nothing to deny

I don’t wanna hurt no one

I listen to my flies they tell me why

We all come from the past

Way back then it made more sense

Mis-decoded words kept the masses tight

But we’ve come along

Raped of all our innocence

Just takes a little faith tell me I’m not right!

You continue as you are

Spitting out your twisted lines

Sure as hell you’ll go to that bright blue place

I try to make you fall

Swap reason for the advocate

And feel my dampening legs on a windy shore

And I don’t know why

But it just won’t sit inside

And I don’t know why

There’s three colours in your eyes

When I believe in love

I believe in giving out

I believe the stars will always shine

I’ve nothing to deny

I don’t wanna hurt no one

I listen to my flies they tell me why

So we’ll go

Hand in hand until we fold
