Ordinary Eyes Lyrics - Carbon Leaf

Shall we begin? 

Gather 'round, gather all 

Keep it real, strip it down 

Rather not wait around 

With the hungry eyes 

Of a snake oil salesman 

[Unverified] water to wine 

Have got the patience 

Haven't got the time 

Saw dusty eyes some enthused 

Some act the part 

(But nonetheless, plan to lose) 

Something wicked-good this way comes 

Not twice upon a lifetime 

Blackbirds, you watch 'em 

They know the black clouds 

They are all runnin' home 

Lightning rod 

(Divining toy) 

When the rains come 

What is your source for joy? 

Looked at my life 

A painted clown unamused 

Keep it real, strip it down 

Rather not wait around 

With the hungry eyes 

Of a snake oil salesman 

Blackbirds you watch 'em 

They know the black clouds 

They are all runnin' home 

Lightning rod 

(Divining toy) 

Home, home 

They are all runnin' home
