All Ears Avow!

Boyd Brandon

Out on the road out here state 
Into the apple of the hours late 
Everyone trying to be the same 
You’re reformed and smiles, smiles and smiles 
Her body language and some of these too 
A generation of intellectual amputees 

Assimilation, conformity 
As drops in a once half empty cup 
Some creatures kiss g-goodbye 
Make it rain for a much needed…* 

Out of your cage get onto your feet 
Knock off the dust in your eyes and repeat 
New fascinations sweet and the sounds 
Polyformed and smiles, smiles and smiles 

You better process some of this too 
A generation of one winged working bees 
Here is the garden kissing their feet 
For the last drops of a twice half empty cup 

Some mountains, we climb to the top 
Single file to, wide-open spaces* 

Can’t see the love for all ears avow 
But no one’s hears nobody listening 
But if I scream again cry over it 
but no one hears, nobody’s listening. 
Can’t single out, all ears avow 
But no one hears, nobody’s listening 
Can’t scream again, can’t cry over it 
But no one hears, nobody's listening
But there's nobody’s listening. 

(clap, clap, clap)
