Lyrics
Writing a song about Lake Memphremagog And tonight I don't believe There are words to spare and be a tip and a nod Admitting it's half the defeat Tonight the non essential worker Is hunting the problem bears One sounds cornered And one can go no further And it all sounds like it's happening upstairs Do you hear that? Like dry leaves a straggling Or a guard dog's claws on cement Or an idea that's getting more determined To get where it's getting This might be harder than keeping it simple, yeah This can be simpler than keeping it real This might be harder than keeping it simple, yeah This can be simpler than keeping it real Shakespeare, you're a drunken savage Well, you're a sober and green eyed Voltaire It almost sounds funny Like two tough talking goalies Who are really going at it upstairs This might be harder than keeping it simple, yeah This can be simpler than keeping it real This might be harder than keeping it simple, yeah This can be simpler than keeping it real Tonight the non essential worker Takes on the green eyed Voltaire Who won't go further Than sounding just like murder When everything is quiet upstairs Now do you hear that? The song of Memphremagog The shush, shush of his gentle lament It's maybe a song that can't quite be determined Till it gets where it's getting
