lyrics

PULL THE STRANDS TOGETHER
I’m making a jigsaw but the pieces don’t fit
The colours aren’t matching and the patterns don’t knit
I’m painting a picture that’s not coloured in
I’m searching for detail but where to begin?
I’m playing with fragments, I’m scratching a mark
But really, I’m just wandering around in the dark
I’m short of ingredients to make a full meal
I need binding agents so the taste can reveal
The full flavoured buffet before just suggested
That now on my plate it sits here undigested

Pull the strands together, edit out the dross
Match the clues running up and down with the ones that run across
Follow the finance, check past form
And the chances are you’ll be getting warm
Then warmer still until such time
That you can interpret this pantomime.
