East of the Moon Lyrics

I know this guy, yeah you know the type

His opinions gush out like a drainpipe

He's got the answers, he's got 'em right here

In a brown paper bag

I know he's harmless but that's not the point

Its one of them things gets my nose out of joint

Indicative of a deeper concern

That troubles my heart

East of the Moon West of the sun

Right of the many and left of the one

Mean what you say and say what you mean

Meet me down in between

How can you always be so damn sure

The things you believe in are perfectly pure

When time after time we see after the fact

Buildings go down because their footings are cracked

Its the blind lead the blind

We fall into line with the rest of our kind

It always comes down to a natural fact

Up in your penthouse or down in my shack

East of the Moon West of the sun

Right of the many and left of the one

Mean what you say and say what you mean

Meet me down in between

The wolf wears a lamb when he's out on the street

Smiles in the faces of people he meets

Says lend me your ears and I'll sing you a song

You'll never believe it could ever go wrong

And the faithful stream to the call

Ready to die to settle it all

Most of us end up on top of the wall

Don't know which way to fall

East of the Moon West of the sun

Right of the many and left of the one

Mean what you say and say what you mean

Meet me down in between
