I Don't Hear You

The blue light flashes

Billy feels its motion

He says, "Should I go and set it free?"

Black-eyed Suzie

Picks up on the notion

She says, "Put it in the lonely tree"

He says, "Baby, we best sharpen our imagination."

He says, "It seems like the rest

don't comprehend the situation." I don't hear you

All the words that come and go

Don't say what I'm after

I don't hear you

Scream it through a microphone

Whisper in a deadly tone...

Don't hear you not you Jane's a dancer

In quiet desperation

She says: "What I give I give for free"

Her twin sister

Feels the same sensation

But says, "You must buy it all from me..."

She says, "oh, I feel best

When the rest is all uncertain."

She says, "Thoughts in my breast

Just hang there like a burning curtain" I don't hear you

You don't matter, you don't care

I don't call that living

I don't hear you

What you say don't reach inside

It is like you're gagged and tied

I don't hear you He said, "Go with the flow

Though the currents can bring danger"

"You didn't know

You were dancing with a desperate stranger" I don't hear

you

I've been dealing With deaf ears

I don't need no laughter

I don't hear you

It ain't hard to analyze

I know what you're really after

I can't hear you
