about

This is about big business. No, not the Bette Midler film...

lyrics

Maybe there’s way to convey this
Maybe there’s another way to try
Maybe ideas are an ugly idea that should be left to rot
Maybe when straight lines bend
Maybe then life will be full
Maybe if you paint your way out of the corners then it won’t look so dull

It’s simple, work out the competition … before they have time to think

There isn’t another way through this
There isn’t another way out
Ideas don’t improve or diminish no matter how blank the canvas was

* If I didn’t get your attention with the concept
Then I don’t know what else there is to say

But now what if the tides change?
See If they work for us or against?
What if the pre-cursers we saw are not all that they’re cracked up to be?
Maybe it’s time that we took stock
Maybe we should count all the dead
Maybe it’s time to put down all the weapons and just start to live

* If I didn’t get your attention with the concept
Then really, I don’t know what else I can do
