Текст (слова) песни: Graham Parker - Sharpening Axes
Intro b b b b b b c b (then) a a a a a a b a (0ver) Em Dm7 (twice)
Em Dm7 I`m not selling molasses I`m not pushing tea Em Dm7 I don`t appeal to the masses and they don`t appeal to me Em Dm7 I`m not peddling fiction I`m not packaging youth Em Dm7 I`ve got a predilection for the truth
BRIDGE #1 Am Dm I can`t stand it any longer I can`t suffer any more fools Am Dm I`m gonna keep on sharpening axes till I`ve got the sharpest tools C Gm I can`t access information comin` down the mainframe C Gm Bm A Bm A Those puerile incantations in couplets or quatrains
Watch it all run amok now watch those idiots score Till you can`t remember that they`re idiots any more Watch that stain increasing spreading out across the earth Till you can`t remember what anything is worth
BRIDGE #2 I can`t stand it any longer I can`t listen to any more words I`m gonna keep on sharpening axes till they cut right through this dirt I can`t access information comin down the satellite beam All I hear is psycho babble and I don`t know what it means
