Life and How to Live It

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Burn bright through the night, two pockets lead the way Two doors to go between, the wall was raised today Two doors with names before your others and your own Keep these books well stocked away and take your happy home [Chorus] My carpenter's out and running about and talking to the street My pockets are out and running about and barking in the street To tell what I have hidden there [Verse 2] Burn bright through the night, two pockets lead the way Two doors to go between, the wall was raised today Raise the walls and shine its floors, the carpenter should rest So that when you tire of one side, the other serves you best [Chorus] My carpenter's out and running about and talking to the street My pockets are out and running about and barking in the street To tell what I have hidden there [Bridge] My ears ring and hear eclipsing time Listen to the holler Listen to my walls within, my tongue Turns to see you in, my ears go tin The air quicken tension building inference and suddenly Life and how to live it [Verse 3] Raise the walls and shine its floors, the carpenter should rest So that when you tire of one side, the other serves you best Read about the wisdom lost, the knock-knock-knock A secret knock, one hammer's locked, the other wisdom lost [Chorus] My carpenter's out and running about and talking to the street My pockets are out and running about and barking in the street To tell what I have hidden there My carpenter's out and running about and barking in the Listen to the holler My pockets are out and running about and barking in the street To tell what I have hidden there [Outro] Listen, listen to the holler I'm gonna write a book, it will be called Life and How to Live It
