Tight Rope

We're walking a rope that is starting to fray-

Trade tensile for stencil to copy-cat blame-

 It's wrapping the throat-

 It's chocking my sleeve-

 If my Adam's apple was riper than Eve-

 

Tight as a Rope... we start to choke 4X

 

 

(Chorus)

 

When we fell off this tight rope,

it got wrapped around the throat...

so tight that we could choke.

 

 

Tight as a rope and we're starting to choke-

And we wrap it again and around on the throat-

Caught in a fray, in an affray

We tried it again, but we fell on our face-

 

Tight as a rope and we're starting to choke-

And we wrap it again and around on the throat-

Zero weaves eight in my xeriscape-

Thirteen wraps in a rope-

Thirteen years it will hang-
