A Few Kind Words lyrics

There was a call on the telephone and an air of resignation, a few kind words And a sort of incompetence as we confused our basic nouns and verbs There was no love lost between There were birds singing in the trees There was foul play at the old arcade, there were people screaming murder at machines Then there was silence the kind that only batman he can make With their hearts touching their teeth and the clouds reaching down to touch concrete There was a voice that I heard one time, so faceless, full of noise And don't you know It shook me from my sleep It threatened hellfire then it spooned with me It whispered in my ear You have only yourself to fear There was a call on the telephone, an air of resignation A few kind words,and the sort of incompetence as we confused our basic nouns and verbs There was no love lost between There were birds singing in the trees There was no love lost between There were birds singing in the trees
