balancing act – a t.v. guide in the olduvai gorge lyrics
who built these houses?
who took apart these trees?
with a shovel and a toothbrush
they have brought me to my knees
now i’m dresed for the invasion
these not much i’m afraid to find
just a half-forgotten prospect
in the ruins of my mind
it’s a tv guide in the olduvai gorge…
birds who’d rather walk
stony statues shedding tears
though i trust these words i read
still i can’t believe her ears
now she beckons with a pitchfork
and a crackling cathode face
but even when i’m next to her
i feel a little out of place
like a tv guide in the olduvai gorge…
these’s a shyness in your shoulder
and a tremor in your tread
yes i can tell you don’t belong here
now that i have trained my head
so let me clean your windshield
while you’re resting for the climb
and i can help you understand
why we can never be in time
like a tv guide in the olduvai gorge…
