Witless or Wise

[Verse 1]
Sturdy and bright
Oh, giver of life
Are you witless or wise?
Government warning
"This lover may bore you,"
Tattooed to my back

[Chorus]
Tenements fell from the skies
When love lights fell from your eyes
Flags flying high
Weary patient may rise
I don't think so, no
I don't think so, no
I don't think so at all
Not at all

[Verse 2]
Chasing the cars
Down around Marble Arch
Oh, a memory too far
Once lost in your eyes
Now caught between thighs
Should we ask for the bill?

[Chorus]
Never did get to the edge
Never jumped; no, my life carried on
Flags flying high
Weary patient may rise
I don't think so, no
I don't think so, no
I don't think so at all
Not at all

[Verse 3]
Should I give you my head?
My kidney? My bed?
Should I run far away?
Those ghost in your eyes
Well, they cry when you smile
And it hurts to be near

[Chorus]
Tenements fell from the skies
When love lights fell from your eyes
Flags flying high
Weary patient may rise
I don't think so, no
I don't think so, no
I don't think so at all
Not at all
Not at all
Not at all
