April Fools and Eggmen - Fair To Midland

Rest assured

They’re weighing words

In sympathetic ink

And they don’t waste their time suspending disbelief

They face the facts

With thinking caps

They map out and display

But that’s not the only way

Common sense

Won’t pay the rent

And doesn’t grow on trees

But splitting hairs can get you anything you need

Who would have thought

Connecting dots

Might get you to the point?

But charity

Is a rarity

Almost as much as modesty

Take

The bait

And save

However much it takes

Before you’ve made them wait

However much it takes

Rest assured

They’re weighing words

In sympathetic ink

And I don’t waste my time suspending disbelief

Masterminds

Want bottom lines

To map out and display

If I have every bit of faith

I won’t be turnin in my grave

Take

The bait

And save

However much it takes

Before you’ve made them wait

However much it takes

Take your own advice

Before you take a side

Run for middle ground

Take

The bait

And save

However much it takes

Before you’ve made

Your wish

However much it takes

Before you lie in bed

However long it takes
