Coal and Gold

copyright 2020 dalekiddlyrics.com

You’ve been talking

all around

speaking to the ground

…… you’re on empty

I’ve been walking

all dumbfound

a memory unwound

…… come and tempt me

And how will this movie end?

Where will the plot suspend?

Walk a coal mine

… stir up coal dust

Walk a gold mine

… stir up gold dust

Walk a fine line

… stir up mistrust

You’ve been screaming

all about

going quietly without

…… it’s unlike you

I’ve been dreaming

full of doubt

a headache inside out

…… it’s a strange brew

Will we ever crest the hill?

Crack our heads like Jack and Jill

Walk a coal mine

… stir up coal dust

Walk a gold mine

… stir up gold dust

Walk a fine line

… stir up mistrust

Sister, sister

where’s your mister?

Mister, mister

really missed her

Sister, sister

who’s the twister?

Mister, mister

should’ve kissed her

You’ve been preached at

by your friends

the what-if never ends

…… you’re distracted

I’ve had teaching

from pretends

direction that offends

…… I’m upended

And what can we make of this?

Could be hit, could be miss

Walk a coal mine

… stir up coal dust

Walk a gold mine

… stir up gold dust

Walk a fine line

… stir up mistrust
