Punctuation Lyrics - Regardless - Thea Gilmore

And the Lord sat down and crossed his legs 

and said Lucy let's just get this straightened out 

I read it in the small print somewhere on the 19th page 

and I don't know what we're arguing about 

There's a fundamental flaw in the way that you do business 

It's a classic rookie error I suppose 

But I am in the details and you ask too many questions 

And you'll never make the grade in peasant clothes 

Well I beg to differ Lucy said and stirred her coffee 

every pawn is still a player don't you think? 

And let me ask you this, when it comes to satisfaction 

is the middle that much better than the brink? 

You see I've got this theory that it's only punctuation 

that separates the list from me to you 

and it's yet to be established just who is in the details 

but I'll take you every time on the overview 

And the Lord was full of wrath as he looked over his glasses 

and said Adam, perhaps you should have your say 

And Adam made a sound something like an exclamation 

And said "Which of you punks was it made the snakes?" 

You see I've got this theory that it's only punctuation 

that separates the list from you to me 

And you can have your little war of full stops and erotemes, 

But the real power's in parentheses
