Ignorance is a blister
A sharp mind is a hot needle
But stitch carefully, my son
Silver linings are thinly threaded
And sometimes clouds can hide the sun
This world is not your oyster
It's just a hollow husk
Filled with pearls of ignorance
A penny won't buy you many thoughts
Just a share in this decaying appurtenance
"Do not wring your damp cloth over the stars"
I heard her say
Cause sometimes when you stare at the abyss
The abyss turns away, yeah!
This world is not your oyster
It's just a hollow husk
Filled with pearls of ignorance
A penny won't buy you many thoughts
Just a share in this decaying appurtenance
This world is not your oyster
It's just a hollow husk
Filled with pearls of ignorance
A penny won't buy you many thoughts
Just a share in this decaying appurtenance
