Not what you got you know
you know it is what you know
that you have got you know
Not what you know you got
not that its got from
a lot of people you meet who
went out and lined that dark street
they wanted to know what they could
do to compete with the real
Listen to the sound of the beat
Not what you want when you are left
on the left or right on the right
hand signals are nice
not essential but kind
when you live in the arctic
the light in your eyes becomes
alive at night due to the heat
of your heart that most tenacious
part we believe in but do nothing
except complain about it
my heart is broken!
my heart is betrayed!
my heart exploded in my chest!
your heart is on fire with the energy
of the sun
your heart in the privacy of
its fire unreleased keeps
constant
your heart beats
and now its gone from the kick arse rhythm of the street
we wanted to hear from the doctors but they packed a suit
in the boot of that bus and forced lunch and a dance
held on the most elegant farms east of the bridge
the water drifts in a stately still life drama
while nobody is watching the tree leans down and strokes
the stream the wind billowing sighs across
the swallowing surface and the laughing water now cries
your heart beats
Not what you got
you know it is what you know
that you have got to know
your heart beats
Not what you got to know
it is what you
know you got
your heart beats
you know
you never notice
but you know
