You'd a Thought (Leonard Cohen Must Die) - James Mcmurtry[00:00:00]
I'm running around in circles[00:00:28]
And I'm chasing my tail[00:00:29]
Carving my initials with a rusty nail[00:00:33]
Betraying my intentions[00:00:40]
Man it happens without fail[00:00:42]
You'd a thought that I'd know better by now[00:00:47]
It might be some dark secret[00:01:00]
I keep bottled up inside[00:01:03]
Or just some miniscule transgression[00:01:06]
I shouldn't have tried to hide[00:01:10]
It's not the size that matters[00:01:13]
It's deceit she can't abide[00:01:16]
You'd a thought that I'd know better by now[00:01:21]
And of course she knows[00:01:33]
'Cause I can't fool her[00:01:35]
And I know she knows[00:01:37]
'Cause she don't fool me[00:01:38]
And she knows I know[00:01:40]
She knows and we might discuss it eventually[00:01:42]
When the pressure builds[00:01:47]
'Til it blows the seals all out from in between[00:01:48]
You'd a thought that we'd know better by now[00:01:55]
You'd have thought that we'd know better[00:02:07]
You'd have thought we'd understand[00:02:11]
Through all the smoke and mirrors[00:02:14]
I guess we do the best we can[00:02:17]
Hiding out without[00:02:21]
A doubt it's getting out of hand[00:02:23]
You'd a thought that we'd know better by now[00:02:30]
And I've seen the phantoms hiding[00:03:05]
In the shadows in her eyes[00:03:08]
It's not that I'm not threatened[00:03:12]
It's just that I'm not surprised[00:03:14]
Good for the gander[00:03:19]
Said the old folks but they lied[00:03:21]
You'd a thought that we'd know better by now[00:03:26]
They circle up the wagons[00:03:39]
Expressing deep dismay[00:03:42]
When we know all the words[00:03:45]
They just can't bring themselves to say[00:03:47]
There's so much they never tell you[00:03:51]
There's so much they hide away[00:03:54]
You'd a thought that they'd know better by now[00:03:59]
You'd have thought that we'd know better[00:04:12]
You'd have thought we'd understand[00:04:15]
Through all the smoke and mirrors[00:04:18]
I guess we do the best we can[00:04:21]
Hiding out without[00:04:25]
A doubt it's getting out of hand[00:04:27]
You'd a thought that we'd know better by now[00:04:34]
You'd a thought that we'd know better by now[00:04:41]
