Thea Gilmore - Punctuation
текст песни

And the Lord sat down and crossed his legs
And said, ‘Lucy, let’s just get this straightened out
Well, I read it in the small print, somewhere on the nineteenth page
And I don’t know what we’re arguing about

There’s a fundamental flaw in the way that you do business
It’s a classic, rookie error, I suppose
But I am in the details, and you ask too many questions
No, you’ll never make that grade in peasant clothes’

‘Well I beg to differ,’ Lucy said and stirred her coffee
‘Every pawn is still a player, don’t you think?
Let me ask you this, when it comes to satisfaction
Is the middle ground much better than you think?

‘Cause you see, I’ve got this theory that it’s only punctuation
That separates the list from me to you
And it’s yet to be established just who is in the detail
But I take you every time on the overview’

And the Lord was full of wrath, as he looked over his glasses
And said, ‘Adam, perhaps you should have your say’
And Adam made a sound, something like an exclamation
Said, ‘Which of you punks was it made this maze?

‘Cause you see, I’ve got this theory that it’s only punctuation
That separates the list from you to me
And you can have your little war of full stops and meritings
But the real power’s in parentheses’
