When you come around here
You can still scratch my back
And I can still change sides
Don't carry no torch 'til you have it in type
That I'm doing okay
It's only one man's outlook
It could be one more lie
Look at it closely
Counterfeit mostly
Yesterdays's brushwork
Using yesterdays' paint
And everything that I believe
And every note that you receive
They're just vanities to you
Hear that liverpool wind as I'm making my way
For the very last time
Is this a resurrection?
And do you really care?
I can't relish no kiss 'til I happen to hear
Your honeycomb nouns
Let you down so often
I'll do the same again
Look at it closely
Counterfeit mostly
Yesterday's stories
It's the same all over the world
And everything that I believe
And every note that you receive
They're just vanities to you
Busy little bodies have a story to tell
Even if it goes against the grain
Tiny little seeds have got an ocean to swell
But who am I to rock the boat
And everything that I believe
And every note that you receive
Look at it closely
Counterfeit mostly
Yesterday's brushwork
Using yesterday's pain
Look at it closely
Counterfeit mostly
Yesterday's stories
It's the same all over the world
Big bad man's law doesn't carry much sway When you come around here You can still scratch my back And I can still change sides Don't carry no torch 'til you have it in type That I'm doing okay It's only one man's outlook It could be one more lie Look at it closely Counterfeit mostly Yesterdays's brushwork Using yesterdays' paint And everything that I believe And every note that you receive They're just vanities to you Hear that liverpool wind as I'm making my way For the very last time Is this a resurrection?
