Metaphor Song

from Little Town Blues (2015) by Mark Lucas

/

lyrics

He’s got a long list of reasons
She’s got no time to waste
They say they life is just a season
Never hurry ever haste
She got the sun at her shoulder
He got the moon at his door
Sooner or later the world spins around
They’ll find their own metaphor

Cat on the roof, lazy in the sun
Dog in the yard barking mad
There’s no love lost between them it’s true
But they still got each other for all that
Cat’s got nine lives to live up to
Dog’s got an old bone to gnaw
Sooner or later the world spins around
They’ll find their own metaphor

We’ve all got our place in the grand scheme of things
Still we search for answers to it all
Some remain grounded some spread their wings
Some are content just to crawl
Between the givers the takers the movers the shakers
And those with no choices at all
Sooner or later the world spins around
We all find our own metaphor
