Righting The Writ

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Let's leap away Let's do what's best and test the waters A double play A deal that benefits both heart and brain [Pre-Chorus] Can you explain How your paintings always come out perfect? In return I'll show you How to sing those songs you always strain [Chorus] We'll sing them softly, and then we'll sing 'em loud I know there are times when the words escape me But I can't forget them now [Post-Chorus] I don't buy it, I'll knock until I try it What a way we've memorized [Verse 2] Still I'm steered by my bad habits And I've had it up to here With a heart that bows before the brain [Pre-Chorus] Can you explain How your paintings always come out perfect? In return I'll show you How to sing those songs you always strain [Chorus] We'll sing them softly, and then we'll sing 'em loud I know there are times when the words escape me But I can't forget them now [Post-Chorus] I don't buy it, I'll knock until I try it What a way we've memorized I don't buy it, I'll knock until I try it What a way we've memorized [Outro] I don't buy it, I'll knock until I try it Proof those parts we've memorized Cross the Ts and dot the Is What we spell should be written well And I'd rather write than fight
