David Roth - Taking Our Turns lyrics
Your rating:
Saturday, half past nine, 29 friends of mine Couple of coffee pots, no smoking allowed Leftover sandwich cremes, mending our broken dreams These are our weekly themes Taking our turns to talk, learning to walk the walk No graduation here, this is clear Someone has raised their hand, they must be new 'cos all you do Is take your turn when it comes round to you That’s when you say your peace, finish and keep your seat Then wonder if what you said made sense to anyone Taking our turns to talk, learning to walk the walk No graduation here, this is clear One and a quarter hours, searching for higher powers Powers that offer up some sanity We make our decisions here, everything changes That’s so clear to anyone brave enough to take a step Taking our turns to talk, learning to walk the walk No graduation here, this is clear That’s all the time we have, please put the chairs all back Unplug the coffee pots, rinse out your mug Climbing down 19 stairs, back to our cars Or maybe the bus stop, just a few blocks down Taking our turns to talk, learning to walk the walk No graduation here, this is clear
