Understanding Furniture 歌詞
Understanding Furniture - Balancing Act
Mason was a soldier once
But he won't tell you any tales
He lives in the place out back
But no once sends him any mail
A private driven man
He has no parts to spare
I try to catch his eye
As he goes down the stairs
In the basement he makes furniture
While he's talking to himself
When he talks to the furniture
Sometimes we send fo rhelp
He lets his secrets go with a mallet and some pegs
A chair that has one arm or a table with no legs
He never speaks to me
He'll never speak to you
He'll never speak to you
He'll never speak to you
Mason understands furniture
Is that enough
Is that enough
I don't mind the noise he makes
It's because of where he's been
It's his right to shut me out
Still I wish he'd let me in
If he were a friend of mine
He might help me to know
All the places that he's been not where I can go
Mason was a soldier once
Now he just takes medicine
It leaves him speechless
It leaves me wondering
About his shining path
The pictures on his shelf
Anything to keep me from wondering about myself
He never speaks to me
He'll never speak to you
He'll never speak to you
He'll never speak to you
Mason understands furniture
Is that enough
Is that enough
Is that enough
Is that enough
Is that enough
