[R.E.M. - Life and How to Live It lyrics]
Burn bright through the night
Two pockets lead the way
Two doors to go between the
Wall was raised today two doors
Two names to call your others and your own
Keep these books well stocked away
And take your happy home
My carpenter's out and running about
And talking to the street
My pockets are out and running about
And barking in the street
To tell what I have hidden there
Burn bright through the night
Two pockets lead the way
Two doors to go between the
Wall was raised today
Raise the walls to chide it's flaws
The carpenter should rest
So that when you tire of one side
The other serves you best
My carpenter's out and running about
And talking to the street
My pockets are out and running about
And barking in the street
To tell what I have hidden there
The hills ringing hear the words in time
Listen to the holler
Listen to my walls within my tongue
Can't you see you made my ears go tin?
The air quicken tension building
Inference and suddenly
Life and how to live it
Raise the walls to chide it's flaws
The carpenter should rest
So that when you tire of one side
The other serves you best
Read about the wisdom lost
The knock-knock-knock
A secret knock, one hammer's locked
The other wisdom lost
My carpenter's out and running about
And talking to the street
My pockets are out and running about
And barking in the street
To tell what I have hidden there
My carpenter's out and running about
And barking in the listen to the holler
My pockets are out and running about
And barking in the street
To tell what I have hidden there
Listen, listen to the holler
I'm gonna write a book
It will be called Life and How to Live It
Two pockets lead the way
Two doors to go between the
Wall was raised today two doors
Two names to call your others and your own
Keep these books well stocked away
And take your happy home
My carpenter's out and running about
And talking to the street
My pockets are out and running about
And barking in the street
To tell what I have hidden there
Burn bright through the night
Two pockets lead the way
Two doors to go between the
Wall was raised today
Raise the walls to chide it's flaws
The carpenter should rest
So that when you tire of one side
The other serves you best
My carpenter's out and running about
And talking to the street
My pockets are out and running about
And barking in the street
To tell what I have hidden there
The hills ringing hear the words in time
Listen to the holler
Listen to my walls within my tongue
Can't you see you made my ears go tin?
The air quicken tension building
Inference and suddenly
Life and how to live it
Raise the walls to chide it's flaws
The carpenter should rest
So that when you tire of one side
The other serves you best
Read about the wisdom lost
The knock-knock-knock
A secret knock, one hammer's locked
The other wisdom lost
My carpenter's out and running about
And talking to the street
My pockets are out and running about
And barking in the street
To tell what I have hidden there
My carpenter's out and running about
And barking in the listen to the holler
My pockets are out and running about
And barking in the street
To tell what I have hidden there
Listen, listen to the holler
I'm gonna write a book
It will be called Life and How to Live It
