| Fair to Midland – April Fools and Eggmen Lyrics | 18 years ago |
|
This song is simply about the little man, the big man the good man, the bad man, the rich man, the poor man- and the battle between them. And the bad man seems to always come out on top no matter what the good man does. Because the big man has the money, the little man needs the money. Like the song says "Common sense wont pay the rent and doesnt grow on trees, but splitting hairs can get you anything you need." The meek try to live by common sense alone, while the tyrants split those hairs to get exactly what they want. It is all about taking from others in this day and age. Noone is humble anymore-and they are all too arrogant. "Charity's a rarity- almost as much a modesty" So we take the bait only because we know that in the end we will rest peacfully and wont be turning in our graves. |

Corrections: If youre keeping score then youre bound to win a birds eye view of a burning bridge Youve come to far to settle past I hope the risk is worth the cause Sound off the false alarm I make my own colony from wood and from ivory and reap the rewards of proximity I'll assemble my equal from what I track and require and gather whats left of his company It smells like disaster and looks like a trap sound off by the wayside and never look back If you could spare me 40 winks then you cry wolf and I can cheat what good are ghosts in kevlar vests with backbones like a jellyfish Stomp on your land again If youre keeping score then youre bound to win a ringside seat at the main event I think this one means something to the effect of that sometimes we make so many mistakes in our lives that it feels like noone wants to listen anymore.So everything starts to look like a trap. So we strive to find that one person that is equal to us and understands us, give up on the rest of the world and never look back. |
