On The Table Tab

by Ac Newman


Intro:

                         

                                   
On the table, the deal that kept the courts at arms length,
                                                        
Stealing our thoughts with the force of their non-sequiturs   amateurs
                                
On the table, the view behind the legs of dancers,
                                                  
Windows of chance there, lost on the trail of dissent - innocent.
                 
Do re mi, innocent.


On the table, the deal between the thieves and exits,
Common and breathless, shrugging at what they've become - number one.
On the table, the steal that kept the courts at arms length,
Stealing our hearts with the force of the new evidence - innocent.
        
Do re mi, innocent.



                                                
Now the plain blondes are playing along with you (x2)

(intro)

On the table, our hopes become a starting pistol,
Though we have missed all the minutes, we know what we've won.
Are we done?
On the table, the deal between the legs of mankind,
Walking a straight line, copping a plea as they went - innocent.
Do re mi, innocent.

Now the plain blondes are playing along with you (x2)
               
On the table (x4)

      
(fade out)

Cheers.
