about

3rd instalment of Jim Bryson's "Survival Tactics" releases.

lyrics

I watched the water boil
In the percolator
And to the kids we could not spoil
Everyday, not listening.

The knights of a 1000 sleeps
Watch from the bedside table
As the rain it flows through the eaves
to every drop we're listening, not listening.

I spend my days on the phone
Waiting for someone to say.
Let's get the fuck out of this place
Cause everyone's stopped listening

I tried to trap the season from
Turning to another one.
I listened to the silence of the thousands leaving
In the beauty of the setting sun

So I watched the flowers grow
And finally gave up on the weeds
I bask in the days unfold
As All the birds go whistling not listening

I heard the not so distant screams
That broke the silence of a summers eve
But Soon all those kids will leave
And we'll be here just listening, not listening.
