Lever Boy Lyrics - Paper Wheels - Trey Anastasio

Watching the words as I'm hearing your voice 

You seem to imply I have some other choice 

Than to follow your logic, and stay in the game 

Though we both know the outcome, is always the same 

A torrent of syllables all swirled around 

As I try to decode a particular sound 

That will serve as a lamppost, a signal or a flame 

To dispel the impression of more of the same 

Higher and higher we leave the ground 

Then we pull the lever together and we lay back down (2x) 

Tie me down and strap me in 

And crush my heart and take a spin 

Around the block, around the Earth 

A little time, with little worth 

Is all that I have asked you for, so take a spin 

Take a spin (repeat)
