Piani Prep + Vox Mgik
by Mark Hanson

-------------------

There's rubber in the middle of my keys
I aim to please
They listen, leaving so misunderstood
And so they should
Why can't they see my songs the way I do
Alive and true

Give me
A few words
For a woman
To sing
A truth
Allowing us
To build a house
Without worrying
Before night comes

I sing, but not as you would come to expect
You laugh at the sound of a nervous wreck
Telling your teachers it's meaningless
And missing completely it's genius

Give me
A few words
For a woman
To sing
A truth
Allowing us
To build a house
Without worrying
Before night comes

Music as played by a total recluse
Sounds of a loony, piano abuse
They'd never be found dead liking these songs
Cos they can't even sing or just dance along
All music is music, even this noise
At least we go out with piano and voice
And try something unique for the world to hear
Unlike you, who just sits there, without a career

Give me
A few words
For a woman
To sing
A truth
Allowing us
To build a house
Without worrying
Before night comes
