lyrics

It never seemed to be too hard to see
But you don't know I'm diamonds
I never tried to hide it from your eyes
But you don't know I'm diamonds

When it's time to walk, you talk and talk
And it sounds like silence
You say you sell the finest pearl
But you know it's nylons

You draw the lines in chalk around
You clock your conscience in and out
You tick the boxes on your sheets & sheets & sheets
Your buried head is in the tape you keep

There's never no hello, even for show
You've got a face like Tyson
I can hear so clear, you've no idea
Thoughts turn to violence

So desperate to be, you never see none
You round up the rest, that's how the west was won
One day you decide, grab something blind and
Push all you can, push all you can

One rule for we, one for you
Confronted, you get your little bone to chew
Aw, it makes you proud
And round & round until confused,
Insulted, your stumbling bovine anger grew
So throw your weight around and

You draw the lines in chalk around
You clock your conscience in and out
You tick the boxes on your sheets & sheets & sheets
Your buried head is in the tape you keep
