Can You Get Your Head Around It

© 2017 Mark Cote

blind man driving me to the show
through yesterday and tomorrow we go
valeted chapters of cages
living for meager wages

in the mirror running from myself
becoming clearer not how I felt
feedback buzzing drowns the shouts
uncertain fears and words of doubt

(chorus) Can you get your head around it
                  the twisted misted road
                  sometimes it's just things you never know
                  can you get your head
                  can you get your head
                  can you get your head around it

silkworm spins a tall tall tale
where nobody wins and nobody fails
the confusion illusion is all they know
biting their tails as they go

(bridge) lipstick eyes that hypnotize
                  and promise you the moon
                  the jagger's lager will vitalize
                  and life is a cartoon

(chorus)
